Nonholonomic constraint

Constraints that are not holonomic constraint.

There is, mainly, two reasons for being nonholonomic:

  1. The constraint is of the form
f(t,ri,r˙N)=0

and this ODE cannot be integrated. In this case it is described as a Pfaffian equation that is non integrable. We can add this ODE to the equations of motion, and try to solve the system.
I think they are also called semi-holonomic.

  1. The constraint is of the form
f(t,r1,r2,,rN)0.

I don't know how proceed in this case.
