Abstract
The authors show that once the motion of a non-holonomic system is known it is possible to reduce the system to the holonomic form. A (singular) Lagrangian function and a Hamiltonian which correctly describe the dynamics of the system can be constructed. The procedure they have developed is applied to a well known system.Keywords
