The Mixed Transformation of Lagrange's Equations

I SHOULD fancy from the review by “G. H. B.” in NATURE of July 19 (p. 265) that the papers of Prof. Levi Civita relate largely to the mixed transformation of Lagrange's equations, the complete theory ...

Proof of Lagrange's Equations of Motion, &c.

IN your issue of January 29, Mr. Heaviside put forward a demonstration of Lagrange's equations of motion which appears invalid. As neither his interpretation of Newton nor his argument based thereon ...

Euler-Lagrange equations of stochastic differential games: application to a game of a productive asset

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract This paper analyzes a noncooperative and symmetric dynamic game where players have free access to a productive asset whose evolution is a ...

Determining the # of DOFs

Recall that you must choose a set of independent coordinates PRIOR to using Lagrange’s equations. One way to verify that your choice of generalized coordinates are independent is to: hold all but one ...
