About :

In this video we will talk about energy in mechanics, and the associated formalism, the Hamiltonian formalism of analytical mechanics. We will see how this generalizes the Lagrangian formalism, and provides a more general principle of least action than the one seen in the last video. We will see the fundamental notion of phase space appear, and we will be able to touch on some applications related to the long-time behavior of systems and chaos. Finally we will establish the mathematical tools allowing us to understand the structure that is hidden behind all this: Legendre transformation, cotangent bundle and symplectic geometry.
