Cartesian approach for constrained mechanical systems
Year: 2010
Type: preprint
Abstract: In the history of mechanics, there have been two points of view for studying mechanical systems: Newtonian and Cartesian. According the Descartes point of view, the motion of mechanical systems is described by the first-order differential equations in the N dimensional configuration space . In this paper we develop the Cartesian approach for mechanical systems with constraints which are linear with respect to velocity.
