Covariant virtual work and the d'Alembert-Lagrange formulation of general relativity
A covariant virtual work and d'Alembert-Lagrange formulation is introduced for general relativity, recovering the Einstein equations from vanishing virtual work and the cosmological constant from an isoperimetric admissibility constraint.
