Global Formulations of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Dynamics on Manifolds A Geometric Approach to Modeling and Analysis /

This book provides an accessible introduction to the variational formulation of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, with a novel emphasis on global descriptions of the dynamics, which is a significant conceptual departure from more traditional approaches based on the use of local coordinates on th...
