Abstract
The affine connection formalism provides a useful framework for the
investigation of a large class of mechanical systems. Mechanical systems
with kinetic energy Lagrangians and possibly with nonholonomic constraints
are fit naturally into the formalism, and some results are stated in the
areas of controllability and optimal control for affine connection control
systems.
