The application of Lie derivatives in Lagrangian mechanics for the development of a general holonomic theory of electric machines

A general approach to the treatment of electrical machine systems is developed. Tensor concepts are adopted; however, metrical ideas are avoided in favour of Hamilton's Principle. Using Lie derivatives and choosing a holonomic reference system, the equations resulting are general, and thus appl...
