A Non holonomic constraints in classical mechanics textbook

AI Thread Summary
To learn about non-holonomic constraints in Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, consider exploring Greenwood's "Classical Dynamics" and "Advanced Dynamics." Additionally, the work by Neimark and Fufaev titled "Dynamics of Nonholonomic Systems" is recommended for a deeper understanding. Many users express concerns regarding the accuracy of Goldstein's 3rd edition on this topic. The suggested resources align well with the mathematical level presented in Goldstein. Engaging with these texts will enhance comprehension of non-holonomic systems in classical mechanics.

I want to learn about the non holonomic case in lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. I've seen that many people say that Goldstein 3rd ed is wrong there.
Where should I go to learn it.
My mathematics level is at the level Goldstein uses.
Please help

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'

I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...

Thread 'Why is the 3 body problem unsolvable? And what will happen if someone solves it?'

I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
