Abstract Non-conservative forces are exerted on a Lagrange system. Their effects on Lie symmetries, structure equation and conserved quantities of the system are studied. It can be seen that some Lie symmetries disappear and some new Lie symmetries emerge. Under certain conditions, some Lie symmetries will still remain present.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
