    Lagrangian mechanics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 11 Lagrangian mechanics From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Lagrangian mechanics is a re-formulation of classical mechanics that combines Classical mechanics conservation of momentum with conservation of energy. It was introduced by the French mathematician Joseph-Louis Lagrange in 1788. Newton's Second Law In Lagrangian mechanics, the trajectory of a system of particles is derived by solving History of classical mechanics · the Lagrange equations in one of two forms, either the Lagrange equations of the Timeline of classical mechanics [1] first kind , which treat constraints explicitly as extra equations, often using Branches [2][3] Lagrange multipliers; or the Lagrange equations of the second kind , which Statics · Dynamics / Kinetics · Kinematics · [1] incorporate the constraints directly by judicious choice of generalized coordinates. Applied mechanics · Celestial mechanics · [4] The fundamental lemma of the calculus of variations shows that solving the Continuum mechanics · Lagrange equations is equivalent to finding the path for which the action functional is Statistical mechanics stationary, a quantity that is the integral of the Lagrangian over time. Formulations The use of generalized coordinates may considerably simplify a system's analysis. Newtonian mechanics (Vectorial For example, consider a small frictionless bead traveling in a groove. If one is tracking the bead as a particle, calculation of the motion of the bead using Newtonian mechanics) mechanics would require solving for the time-varying constraint force required to Analytical mechanics: keep the bead in the groove. For the same problem using Lagrangian mechanics, one Lagrangian mechanics looks at the path of the groove and chooses a set of independent generalized Hamiltonian mechanics coordinates that completely characterize the possible motion of the bead.

  • Dynamics in About 100 Pages
    Intermediate Dynamics in about 100 pages Anindya Chatterjee Department of Mechanical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur 208016 This version: November 4, 2014 2 Preface These notes started with a course at the Indian Institute of Science (Bangalore) on the dynamics and control of mechanical systems, of which I taught the “dynamics” part several times. I have since moved to IIT Kanpur via IIT Kharagpur. There are many excellent but fat books on dynamics. My notes, at least, are brief. I hope you will find my treatment of rotation matrices easy and useful (“rotate the body, not the axes”). You might enjoy my discussion of nonholonomic constraints in Lagrangian mechanics (“where do the λ’s come from?”). If you like something else, please send me email. Many students initially struggle with simple dynamics problems. It is like riding a bicycle. It looks easy until you try, and later you wonder what the fuss was about; but a journey lies in between. Several excellent people tried to teach me mechanics. Progress was slow. Professor A. C. Gomes of St. Xavier’s College, Kolkata, taught me well in my impressionable teens (1983-85). Professor Andy Ruina of Cornell University, my last formal teacher, helped a lot (1993-96). I took a long time to understand what I describe in these notes. But then dynamics is a great subject developed by great people. I am just a messenger, trying to bring the story to you. Several students, friends, and colleagues have helped with various parts of these notes (typing, figures, general discussion). I am embarrassed to say that I did not write down their names at the time, and so may miss someone now.
