A METHOD FOR SOLVING THE DYNAMICS OF MULTIBODY SYSTEMS WITH RHEONOMIC AND NONHOLONOMIC CONSTRAINTS

The solution of the dynamic problem of multibody systems subject to rheonomic and nonholonomic constraints is achieved by applying singular value decomposition of the constraint matrix and projections of the dynamic equations of the systems along the feasible and unfeasible directions of the constraints. Formula to solve the constraint reaction forces and a method to avoid the violation of the constraints are also given.The solution does not rely on coordinates used to describe the systems and is computational efficitive example is finally presnted.

Mackey Theory for p-adic Lie Groups

This paper gives a p-adic analogue of the Mackey theory, which relates representations of a group of type G - H × t A to systems of imprimitivity.
