Forced variational integrators are given by the discretization of the Lagrange-d'Alembert principle for systems subject to external forces, and have proved useful for numerical simulation studies of complex dynamical systems.

Moreover, we characterize the dynamics for nonholonomic systems in terms of virtual nonholonomic constraints, i. e., we characterize when can we obtain nonholonomic dynamics from virtual nonholonomic constraints.
