Mechanics is the origin of physics. Almost any physical theory like electrodynamics stems from mechanical explanations. The mathematical-geometric considerations in mechanics serve as a prototype for other physical theories. Consequently, developments in modern physics in turn have a feedback to mechanics in terms of its representation. The laws of nature can be expressed as differential equations. The fact that these equations can be solved by average computers has led most engineers and many mathematical physicists to neglect geometrical aspects for solving and better understanding their problems. The intimate relation between geometry and analysis led to the differential geometry, which is a valuable tool for a better understanding in many physical disciplines like classical mechanics, electrodynamics, and nowadays in mechatronics. It has been the development of the theory of relativity that revealed the paramount importance of the differential geometry. Many problems in research and development can be studied by differential-geometric methods. Modern non-linear control theories, for instance, are entirely based on the differential geometry. This paper addresses some aspects in mathematical modelling of multi-body and electromechanical systems. The motivation for this research arises from applications of linear induction machines in modern transport technologies.
