This book is devoted to the basic variational principles of mechanics, namely the Lagrange-D’Alembert differential variational principle and the Hamilton integral variational principle. These two variational principles form the basis of contemporary analytical mechanics, and from them the body of classical dynamics can be deductively derived as a part of physical theory.
"An Introduction to Modern Variational Techniques in Mechanics and Engineering" will serve a broad audience of students, researchers, and professionals in analytical mechanics, applied variational calculus, optimal control, physics, and mechanical and aerospace engineering. The book may be used in graduate and senior undergraduate dynamics courses in engineering, applied mathematics, and physics departments, or it may also serve as a self-study reference text.
