Chaplygin problem
text:
In mathematics, particularly in the fields of nonlinear dynamics and the calculus of variations, the Chaplygin problem is an isoperimetric problem with a differential constraint. Specifically, the problem is to determine what flight path an airplane in a constant wind field should take in order to encircle the maximum possible area in a given amount of time. The airplane is assumed to be constrained to move in a plane, moving at a constant airspeed v, for time T, and the wind is assumed to move
