In this research paper, the authors adapt Lagrangian Neural Networks (LNNs) to mechanical systems with nonholonomic constraints. LNNs are a powerful tool for predicting trajectories in physical systems governed by conservation laws. The authors demonstrate that incorporating these restrictions into the neural network’s learning improves not only trajectory estimation accuracy but also ensures adherence to constraints and exhibits better energy behavior compared to the unconstrained counterpart.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper shows how LNNs can be used to predict mechanical system trajectories with nonholonomic constraints. Nonholonomic constraints are rules that govern the movement of objects, like wheels on a car not slipping sideways. The authors tested their approach on some well-known examples and found it worked better than predicting without these constraints.
