  • Michael Fowler, Graduate Classical Mechanics, University of Virginia, 2015

    "In the present lectures, we provide fuller explanations [of the subject covered in Landau and Lifshitz Mechanics] to make the material (we hope) easier to follow on a first reading"

    "Newtonian mechanics and special relativity for students with good preparation in physics and mathematics ... Topics include oscillators damped and driven and resonance ... an introduction to Lagrangian mechanics and optimization, symmetries and Noether's theorem, special relativity, collisions and scattering, rotational motion, angular momentum, torque, the moment of inertia tensor, gravitation, planetary motion and a little glimpse of quantum mechanics"

Lorem Ipsum

Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod rendered as bold text. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum le syndrome du clandestin. Три только движения в натурѣ есть, проходное, зыблющееся или трясущееся и коловратное. A clear, authoritative judicial holding on the meaning of a particular provision

\[ \begin{align} \frac{d}{d t} \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial \dot{q}} & = \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial q} \\ H & = \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial \dot{q}}\dot{q}-{\mathcal L}\\ -\frac{\partial S}{\partial t} & = H\left(q, \frac{\partial S}{\partial q}, t\right) \end{align} \]

should not be cast in doubt and subjected to challenge whenever a related though not utterly inconsistent provision is adopted in the same statute or even in an affiliated statute, the two authors wrote
