Are There Any PDFs on Lagrangian Dynamics with Problems and Solutions?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the availability of PDFs related to Lagrangian Dynamics that include problems and solutions. Participants are seeking resources for study and reference in this area of mechanics.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests PDFs on Lagrangian Dynamics that include problems and solutions.
  • Another participant provides a link to a PDF from Harvard and suggests downloading all related chapters for future reference.
  • A different participant inquires about accessing the PDF if they are not affiliated with Harvard.
  • One participant shares additional resources, including links to MIT lecture notes and examples from another site, as well as a recommendation for a book available on Amazon.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no consensus on a single resource, as participants provide different links and suggestions, indicating multiple options available for accessing materials on Lagrangian Dynamics.

Contextual Notes

Some links provided may have access restrictions based on institutional affiliation, and the quality or relevance of the resources is not evaluated within the discussion.

Who May Find This Useful

Students and educators looking for resources on Lagrangian Dynamics, particularly those seeking problem sets and solutions for study purposes.

Sure. There is a great one at

http://isites.harvard.edu/fs/docs/icb.topic193296.files/chap6.pdf

The rest of the chapters are at

http://my.harvard.edu/icb/icb.do?keyword=k19919&pageid=icb.page98303

I highly recommend that you download them all and place them in a safe place for prosperity's sake!

Best regards

Pete

where can I download the pdf if I am not of harvart
thanks...
 
I know that this is an old thread but I reckon it may be useful for someone looking for information in the future, I have found these two links:

1. Open MIT
http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Mechanical-Engineering/2-003JSpring-2007/LectureNotes/"

2.A few examples from a sit I found in google

http://electron6.phys.utk.edu/phys594/archives/marchives.htm"

aside from that https://www.amazon.com/dp/0070692580/?tag=pfamazon01-20 is also a great resource
