Leibnizian concepts, Johann Bernoulli systematized the virtual work principle and made explicit the
concept of infinitesimal displacement. He was able to solve problems for both rigid bodies as well as
fluids. Bernoulli's version of virtual work law appeared in his letter to Pierre Varignon in 1715, which

D'Alembert published his Traité de Dynamique where he applied the principle of virtual work, based
on Bernoulli's work, to solve various problems in dynamics. His idea was to convert a dynamical
problem into static problem by introducing inertial force.[4] In 1768, Lagrange presented the virtual
work principle in a more efficient form by introducing generalized coordinates and presented it as an
alternative principle of mechanics by which all problems of equilibrium could be solved. A systematic
