Modern geometric approaches to analytical mechanics rest on a bundle structure of the configuration space. The connection this allows for an intrinsic splitting reduced Euler-Lagrange equations. Hamel's equations, other hand, provide universal approach non-holonomic in local coordinates. link between formulation and coordinates has not been discussed sufficiently. equations as well curvature co...

In many practical problems, we need to find the most appropriate function: e.g., we need to find a control strategy u(t) that leads to the best performance of a system, we need to find the shape of the car which leads to the smallest energy losses, etc. Optimization over an unknown function can be described by the known Euler-Lagrange equations. The traditional way of deriving Euler-Lagrange eq...

This paper presents an alternate form for the dynamic modelling of a mechanical system that simulates in real life a gantry crane type, using Euler’s classical mechanics and Lagrange formalism, which allows find the equations of motion that our model describe. Moreover, it has a basic model design system using the SolidWorks software, based on the material and dimensions of the model provides s...

The classical relativistic wave equations are presented as partial difference equations in the arena of covariant discrete phase space. These equations are also expressed as difference-differential equations in discrete phase space and continuous time. The relativistic invariance and covariance of the equations in both versions are established. The partial difference and difference-differential...

Nonlocally related systems for the Euler and Lagrange systems of twodimensional dynamical nonlinear elasticity are constructed. Using the continuity equation, i.e., conservation of mass of the Euler system to represent the density and Eulerian velocity components as the curl of a potential vector, one obtains the Euler potential system that is nonlocally related to the Euler system. It is shown...

The purpose of this article is to illustrate the role of connections and symmetries in the Wheeled Inverted Pendulum (WIP) mechanism an underactuated system with rolling constraints popularized commercially as the Segway, and thereby arrive at a set of simpler dynamical equations that could serve as the starting point for more complex feedback control designs. The first part of the article view...

The goal of this paper is to present the necessary and sufficient conditions that every extremizer a given class functionals, defined on set C1[a,b], must satisfy. Lagrange function depends generalized fractional derivative, integral, an antiderivative involving previous operators. We begin by obtaining Euler–Lagrange equation, which condition optimize functional. By imposing convexity over fun...

We use a modification of the parameterization method to study invariant manifolds for difference equations. We establish existence, regularity, smooth dependence on parameters and study several singular limits, even if the difference equations do not define a dynamical system. This method also leads to efficient algorithms that we present with their implementations. The manifolds we consider in...
