Abstract
This paper presents the general form of the explicit equations of motion for mechanical systems. The systems may have holonomic and/or nonholonomic constraints, and the constraint forces may or may not satisfy D’Alembert’s principle at each instant of time. The explicit equations lead to new fundamental principles of analytical mechanics.Keywords
