Geometric and numerical analysis of nonholonomic systems

A Simões - 2021 - comum.rcaap.pt
Geometric mechanics is a fairly recent field of mathematics lying in the intersection of at least
four different scientific fields: differential geometry, physics, numerical analysis and …

[HTML][HTML] A nonholonomic Newmark method

AA Simoes, SJ Ferraro, JC Marrero… - Journal of Computational …, 2023 - Elsevier
Using the nonholonomic exponential map, we obtain a new version of Newmark-type
methods for nonholonomic systems (see also Jay and Negrut (2009) for a different …

Mechanical Hamiltonization of unreduced -simple Chaplygin systems

AA Simoes, JC Marrero, DM de Diego - arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.18648, 2024 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we prove that the trajectories of unreduced $\phi $-simple Chaplygin kinetic
systems are reparametrizations of horizontal geodesics with respect to a modified …

Geodesic extensions of mechanical systems with nonholonomic constraints

M Belrhazi, T Mestdag - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.11997, 2024 - arxiv.org
For a Lagrangian system with nonholonomic constraints, we construct extensions of the
equations of motion to sets of second-order ordinary differential equations. In the case of a …

Jacobi fields in nonholonomic mechanics

AA Simoes, JC Marrero… - Journal of Physics A …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
In this paper, we define Jacobi fields for nonholonomic mechanics using a similar
characterization than in Riemannian geometry. We give explicit conditions to find Jacobi …

Nonholonomic Newmark method

AA Simões, SJ Ferraro, JC Marrero… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
Using the nonholonomic exponential map, we generalize the well-known family of Newmark
methods for nonholonomic systems. We give numerical examples including a test problem …
