It is proved that the new algorithm can preserve the general symplectic geometric structures of Birkhoffian systems. A numerical experiment for a damping oscillator system is conducted. The result shows that the new algorithm can better simulate the energy dissipation than the R-K method, which illustrates that we can numerically solve the dynamical equations by the discrete variational method in a Birkhoffian framework for the systems with a general symplectic structure. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the results of the numerical experiments are determined not by the constructing methods of Birkhoffian functions but by whether the numerical method can preserve the inherent nature of the dynamical system.展开更多

Based on the fact that relativistic rotating inertia is embedded in the Birkhoffian systems, the Pfaff action of rotating relativistic Birkhoffian systems was defined. The Pfaff-Birkhoff principles and Birkhoff's equations of the constrained rotating relativistic systems were obtained. The geometrical description, the exact properties and their forms on R T^*M for the constrained rotating relativistic Birkhoffian systems are given. The global analyses of the autonomous, semi-autonomous and non-autonomous constrained relativistic Birkhoff's equations as well as the geometrical properties of energy change for the constrained rotating relativistic Birkhoffian systems were also conducted.展开更多
