In this article, we will introduce the phenomenon known as the Painlevé paradox and further discuss the associated coupled phenomena, jam and lift-off. We analyze under what conditions the Painlevé paradox can occur for a general two-body collision using a framework that can be easily used with a variety of impact laws, however, in order to visualize jam and lift-off in a numerical simulation, we choose to use a recently developed energetic impact law as it is capable of achieving a unique forward solution in time. Further, we will use this framework to derive the criteria under which the Painlevé paradox can occur in a forced double-pendulum mechanical system. First, using a graphical technique, we will show that it is possible to achieve the Painlevé paradox for relatively low coefficient of friction values, and second we will use the energetic impact law to numerically show the occurrence of the Painlevé paradox in the double-pendulum system.
