- Synopsis:
-
The course is an introduction to analytical mechanics. The students acquire knowledge of the basic concepts of theLagrange formalism. The efficiency of this method is illustrated on elementary examples like the two-bodyproblem, the motion of a system of constrained mass points, and of a rigid body. Advanced parts of the coursecover differential and integral principles of mechanics. The subject is the first part of the course of classicaltheoretical physics (02TEF1, 02TEF2).
