Abstract
It is demonstrated that the inertial terms in the dynamic equations of motion in a moving
frame take a simple universal form in terms of the classic mass matrix, when the traditional Lagrangian
approach with local velocities as time derivatives of position is replaced by a Hamiltonian approach, in
which absolute velocities and local positions are interpolated by identical shape functions. The resulting
equations take on a simple systematic form that lends itself naturally to conservative time integration
and permits a simple algorithmic damping scheme in terms of local motion.
