Classical Mechanics with Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control: An Intuitive Introduction (Student Mathematical Library, 69, Band 69) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This textbook is for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate course, says Levi, and it is not unreasonable to cover two to four of the eight chapters in one semester, so it can be used for more than one course. It covers one degree of freedom, more degrees of freedom, rigid body motion, variational principles of mechanics, classical problems of calculus of variations, the conditions of Legendre and Jacobi for a minimum, optimal control, and the heuristic foundations of Hamiltonian mechanics. He assumes readers have been exposed to beginning courses in physics, in vector calculus, and in basic linear algebra, but does review key concepts when they arise.
