Abstract: In this paper we obtain the explicit equations of motion for mechanical systems under nonideal constraints without the use of generalized inverses. The new set of equations is shown to be ...

Abstract: This paper presents the general form of the explicit equations of motion for mechanical systems. The systems may have holonomic and/or nonholonomic constraints, and the constraint forces may or ...

Abstract: In the present study, a 1-D dynamic permeation of a monovalent electrolyte solution through a negatively charged-hydrated cartilaginous tissue is analyzed using the mechano-electrochemical theory ...

Abstract: Since its inception about 200 years ago, Lagrangian mechanics has been based upon the Principle of D’Alembert. There are, however, many physical situations where this confining principle is not ...
