Overview
- Gives undergraduate and graduate students alike a vivid idea of connection theory in action for many-body systems
- Shows that geometric mechanics for many-body systems works well in dealing with the falling cat problem
- Adapts geometric mechanics for the falling cat problem in the formulation of the port-controlled Hamiltonian system
