Abstract
The aim of this communication is to develop a Cartesian approach to description of nonholonomic systems with constraints that are linear with respect to velocity. The obtained results are applied to study the classical nonholonomic systems: the constrained particle in ℝ3, the Chaplygin-Caratheodory sleigh, and the symmetrical top in the Suslov problem. Bibliography: 6 titles.
