Generalized coordinates

In analytical mechanics, generalized coordinates are a set of parameters used to represent the configuration of a system in a configuration space. These parameters must uniquely define the configuration of the system relative to a reference configuration. The generalized velocities are the time derivatives of the generalized coordinates of the system.…
