The damped brachistochrone problem and that with non-zero initial velocity are studied. Based on the discussion of these problems, one may take theorems of motion as constraints for some systems, and whether the constraints are holonomic or nonholonomic is related to the fact that the differential theorems of motion are integrable or non-integrable.
