Higher Order Variational Integrators for Multibody System Dynamics with Constraints
The continuous and discrete Euler-Lagrangian equations with holonomic constraints are presented based on continuous and discrete Hamiltonian Principle. Using Lagrangian polynomial to interpolate state variables and Gauss quadrature formula to approximate Hamiltonian action integral, the higher order...
