Abstract
In this paper, we present a Riemannian geometric derivation of the governing equations of motion of nonholonomic dynamic systems. A geometric form of the work-energy principle is first derived. The geometric form can be realized in appropriate generalized quantities, and the independent equations of motion can be obtained if the subspace of generalized speeds allowable by nonholonomic constraints can be determined. We provide a geometric perspective of the governing equations of motion and demonstrate its effectiveness in studying dynamic systems subjected to nonholonomic constraints.
