Lagrangian mechanics has proven to be the most elegant theoretical method in solving dynamic problems with constraints, transforming Newtonian mechanics analytically using algebra and calculus;d/dt(∂L/∂q̇ₖ) - ∂L/∂qₖ = 0 Where;L - Lagrangian of the system ( L = T - V)T - Kinetic energyV - Potential energyqₖ - Generalized coordinatesk = 1,2,…,NToday we mark the 209th death anniversary of one of the brilliant minds in history, fundamental figure in the development of classical mechanics, mathematician and astronomer Joseph-Louis Lagrange who died on this day, 10th April 1813 in Paris, French Empire. -- source link
