Lecture

Lagrange Method

Description

This lecture introduces the Lagrange method, which expresses constraints and degrees of freedom in mechanics using generalized coordinates. It covers time-dependent constraints, compatible displacements, generalized forces, and kinetic energy demonstrations. The Lagrange equations for material points and systems are derived, along with conservative forces and the Lagrangian.
