Abstract
A new method of introducing nonholonomic constraints into the Lagrangian formulation of mechanics is presented and compared with the conventional approach. An example is given using the new formulation. The example falls outside the scope of the conventional approach, but is easily solvable by the new method. Several generalizations of the new method outside the domain of Newtonian mechanics are mentioned.Keywords
