What Are the Best Books on Lagrangian Mechanics and Problem-Solving Resources?

[fib1123]

What books include the theory of lagrangian mechanics? And where can i also find some problems?Could lagrangian mechanics help me in solving problems with oscillations?

What books include the theory of lagrangian mechanics?

Mathematical Method of Classical Mechanics by VI Arnold

Classical Mechanics: Hamiltonian and Lagrangian Formalism by Alexei Deriglazov (I haven't read this book)

where can i also find some problems?

David Morin's problem book on classical mechanics.

Could lagrangian mechanics help me in solving problems with oscillations?

Depends highly on the problem.

 

[smodak]

Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Mechanics by Calkin (amazon preview is wrong) and the corresponding Solution Manual . You can also use any good Classical Mechanics book (search here or look up similar discussions below)

 

[vanhees71]

A short introduction is Landau&Lifshitz vol. 1. It doesn't even bother you with "naive mechanics" but uses right away the much simpler approach through the action principle!

Here's the correct preview : https://books.google.co.in/books?id...ce=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false.

 

[Moayd Shagaf]

a student's guide to lagrangians and hamiltonians by patrick hamill, Or you can use landau book, Wolfgang nolting 2 analytical mechanics.
