International audienceIn this report we consider the possibility of using the differential variational principles of Jourdain and Gauss as a starting point for the study of conservation laws of holonomic conservative and nonconservative dynamical systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom. We demonstrate that this approach has the same status as the method based on the D'Alembert's differential variational principle developed in a previous paper
