See Talk:Ice rafting#Article history on the beginning of the chain of events which have led me to creation of this article. When writing a stub about drifters I was puzzled for a couple of days what the heck Lagrangian drifters are. When I finally figured it out, it took quite some time to track "Lagrangian analysis" to Lagrangian mechanics. Surely my hardships are laughable for experts, but somehow experts in this area do not frequent wikipedia it looks like. Laudak (talk) 01:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

My impression is that this stuff is more closely related to Lagrangian coordinates than Lagrangian mechanics. I've updated the article with some other references. Akriasas (talk) 20:12, 16 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Applications of Lagrangian mechanics may be a better name. Comments? Laudak (talk) 16:23, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
