  • Abstract
    The physics of nonlinear, nonholonomically constrained mechanical systems are not well understood. In order to make some headway, experiments need to be devised to test the various proposed theories. As a small part toward the solution of this problem, this paper addresses the feasibility of building an electric circuit analog of a nonholonomic system and its accuracy in representing the dynamics of the mechanical system
