چکیده

Thispapergives the general constrainedPoincaré equationsofmotion formechanical systems subjected to holonomic and/or nonholonomic constraints that may or may not satisfy d’Alembert’s principle at each instant of time. It also extends Gauss’s principle of least constraint to include quasi-accelerations when the constraints are ideal, thereby expanding the compass of thisprinciple considerably.Thenewequations providedeeper insights into the dynamics of multi-body systems and point to new ways for controlling them.

Explicit Poincaré equations of motion for general constrained systems . Part II . Applications to multi - body dynamics and nonlinear control

The power of the new equations of motion developed in part I of this paper is illustrated using three examples from multi-body dynamics. The first two examples deal with the problem of accurately controlling the orientation of a rigid body, while the third example deals with the synchronization of two rigid bodies so that their relative orientations are ‘locked’ through prescribed dynamical rel...

What is the General Form of the Explicit Equations of Motion for Constrained Mechanical Systems ?

Since its inception more than 200 years ago, analytical mechanics has been continually drawn to the determination of the equations of motion for constrained mechanical systems. Following the fundamental work of Lagrange @1# who bequeathed to us the so-called Lagrange multipliers in the process of determining these equations, numerous scientists and mathematicians have attempted this central pro...

Mechanical Systems With Nonideal Constraints: Explicit Equations Without the Use of Generalized Inverses

When constraints are applied to mechanical systems, additional forces of constraint are produced that guarantee their satisfaction. The development of the equations of motion for constrained mechanical systems has been pursued by numerous scientists and mathematicians, like Appell @1#, Beghin @2#, Chetaev @3#, Dirac @4#, Gauss @5#, Gibbs @6#, and Hamel @7#. All these investigators have used as ...

New General Principle of Mechanics and Its Application to General Nonideal Nonholonomic Systems

In this paper we develop a general minimum principle of analytical dynamics that is applicable to nonideal constraints. The new principle encompasses Gauss’s Principle of Least Constraint. We use this principle to obtain the general, explicit, equations of motion for holonomically and/or nonholonomically constrained systems with non-ideal constraints. Examples of a nonholonomically constrained ...

Explicit equations of motion for constrained mechanical systems with singular mass matrices and applications to multi-body dynamics

We present the new, general, explicit form of the equations of motion for constrained mechanical systems applicable to systems with singular mass matrices. The systems may have holonomic and/or non-holonomic constraints, which may or may not satisfy D’Alembert’s principle at each instant of time. The equation provides new insights into the behaviour of constrained motion and opens up new ways o...
