Cases of Integrability Which Correspond to the Motion of a Pendulum in the Three-dimensional Space

We systematize some results on the study of the equations of spatial motion of dynamically symmetric fixed rigid bodies–pendulums located in a nonconservative force fields. The form of these equations is taken from the dynamics of real fixed rigid bodies placed in a homogeneous flow of a medium. In parallel, we study the problem of a spatial motion of a free rigid body also located in a similar force fields. Herewith, this free rigid body is influenced by a nonconservative tracing force; under action of this force, either the magnitude of the velocity of some characteristic point of the body remains constant, which means that the system possesses a nonintegrable servo constraint, or the center of mass of the body moves rectilinearly and uniformly; this means that there exists a nonconservative couple of forces in the system

Metriplectic torque for rotation control of a rigid body

Metriplectic dynamics couple a Poisson bracket of the Hamiltonian description with a kind of metric bracket, for describing systems with both Hamiltonian and dissipative components. The construction builds in asymptotic convergence to a preselected equilibrium state. Phenomena such as friction, electric resistivity, thermal conductivity and collisions in kinetic theories all fit within this framework. In this paper an application of metriplectic dynamics is presented that is of interest for the theory of control: a suitably chosen torque, expressed through a metriplectic extension of its “natural” Poisson algebra, an algebra obtained by reduction of a canonical Hamiltonian system, is applied to a free rigid body. On a practical ground, the effect is to drive the body to align its angular velocity to rotation about a stable principal axis of inertia, while conserving its kinetic energy in the process. On theoretical grounds, this example provides a class of nonHamiltonian torques that can be added to the canonical Hamiltonian description of the free rigid body and reduce to metriplectic dissipation. In the canonical description these torques provide convergence to a higher dimensional attractor. The method of construction of such torques can be extended to other dynamical systems describing “machines” with non-Hamiltonian motion having attractors.

Cases of integrability corresponding to the pendulummotion on the plane

In this article, we systemize the results on the study of plane-parallel motion equations of fixed rigid body-pendulum which is placed in certain nonconserva- tive force field. In parallel, we consider the problem of a plane-parallel motion of a free rigid body which is also placed in a similar force field. Thus, the non-conservative tracking force operates onto this body. That force forces the value of certain point of a body to be constant for all the time of a motion, which means the existence of nonintegrable servoconstraint in the system. The obtained results are systematized and served in the invariant form. We also show the nontrivial topological and mechanical analogies.
