Lagrange's Equations [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1903
As most of the standard treatises on dynamics contain satisfactory proofs of Lagrange's equations, I do not see that any useful purpose is served by proposing an additional one. The important point is this:—That amongst the numerous forms in which the kinetic energy of a dynamical system can be expressed, there is only one form which can be employed in

Testing and Simulation of Multilayer Polyvinylidene Fluoride‐Based Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The study considers the use of polymer/dielectric‐based multilayers piezoelectric Energy Harvesters (EH) to produce an output voltage and current, by exploiting the mechanical energy provided by human organs movements. In particular, the heart motion is considered from the kinematic viewpoint, and a multiphysics theoretical model is developed to assess

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

The vibrational motion of a spring pendulum in a fluid flow

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
In this work, the response of two degrees of freedom for a nonlinear dynamical model represented by the motion of a damped spring pendulum in an inviscid fluid flow is investigated.

Lagrange and the Solution of Numerical Equations

open access: yesHistoria Mathematica, 2001
J.-L. Lagrange's work on the solution of numerical polynomial equations occupies the bulk of this article, following on a brief reference to his writing on algebraic solutions in \textit{Réflexions sur la Résolution Algébrique des Equations}, 1770. The work on numerical equations extended over a long period (1769/1770-1798, revised 1808) and developed ...

Resonance in the Cart-Pendulum System—An Asymptotic Approach

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The major objective of this research is to study the planar dynamical motion of 2DOF of an auto-parametric pendulum attached with a damped system. Using Lagrange’s equations in terms of generalized coordinates, the fundamental equations of motion (EOM ...

Lagrange’s equations in nonholonomic mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesNelineinaya Dinamika, 2013
Summary: The question on possibility of writing the equations of motion of a nonholonomic system in the form of Lagrange's equations of the 2nd kind for the minimal number of parameters is considered. The corresponding results of \textit{J. Hadamard} [Bordeaux Mém. (4) V. 397--417 (1895; JFM 26.0849.02)] and \textit{H. Béghin} [Bull. Soc. Math. Fr. 57,

The Schwarzian derivative and Euler–Lagrange equations

open access: yesJournal of Geometry and Physics, 2022
We study the Schwarzian derivative from a variational viewpoint. Firstly we show that the Schwarzian derivative defines a first integral of the Euler--Lagrange equation of a second order Lagrangian. Secondly, we show that the Schwarzian derivative itself is the Euler--Lagrange operator for an appropriately chosen class of variations.
