Abstract

This paper presents one type of integrals and its condition of existence for the equations of motion of higher-order nonholonomic systems, including 1-order integral (generalized energy integral), 2-order integral and p-order integral (p>2).All of these integrals can be constructed by the Lagrangian function of the system. Two examples are given to illustrate the application of the suggested method.
