contents We develop a contraction-based framework to establish the existence and exponential stability of periodic solutions in planar nonsmooth dynamical systems governed by Filippov differential inclusions. The method integrates a time- and state-dependent weighted metric with Clarke's generalized Jacobian and a uniform jump condition across switching manifolds to guarantee global exponential contraction on compact, forward-invariant sets. This work generalizes classical contraction results from smooth one-dimensional systems to two-dimensional systems with discontinuities and sliding behavior. A fixed-point argument ensures the existence and uniqueness of an attracting periodic orbit. The framework offers a robust analytic tool for stability analysis in piecewise-smooth systems, with applications in hybrid control, nonsmooth mechanics, and computational dynamics.
