Abstract It has been pointed out through the geometrical research activities of RAAG that the geometrical expression for the performance of electro-mechanical and hydro-mechanical systems has the non-Riemannian character and it plays an essential role associated with the energy conversion in these systems. This suggests a possibility of constructing such geometrical theory that treats in a unified way the various energy conversions in engineering dynamical systems. In this report an attempt is made to study geometrically the problem of energy conversions on the basis of somewhat simplifying assumptions for the facility of analysis. Essential features concerning the energy conversion are grasped geometrically and the general principle for the physico-engineering application is obtained.
