Virtual Displacement and Virtual Work: R K K MCL731: Analytical Dynamics

The document discusses virtual displacement and virtual work in analytical dynamics. It defines virtual displacement as an infinitesimal variation of the configuration of a mechanical system that satisfies the constraints but is not necessarily the result of actual forces. Virtual work is defined as the work done by actual forces during virtual displacement. The principle of virtual work states that at equilibrium, the virtual work done by the actual forces must be zero for all kinematically admissible virtual displacements. The document provides examples of workless constraints and uses the principle of virtual work to derive equations of motion.
