Abstract

A differential-geometric approach for the numerical solution of mixed differential-algebraic systems of equations is presented and a general local parametrization for such systems is constructed. Multistep ODE solvers are then applied for obtaining locally a numerical approximation to the solution of the differential-algebraic system. The class of local parametrizations considered in the paper contains as particular cases, the ‘tangent space’ parametrization and the local parametrization induced by the ‘generalized coordinate partitioning’. Applications for the numerical solution of the Euler-Lagrange equations are discussed in detail and computational results for a four-bar linkage mechanism are given.
