Abstract: A big-isotropic structure $E$ is an isotropic subbundle of $TMoplus{T}^{*}M$, endowed with the metric defined by pairing. The structure $E$ is said to be integrable if the Courant bracket $[mathcalX,mathcalY]inGammaE$, $forallmathcalX,mathcalYinGammaE$. Then, necessarily, one also has $[mathcalX,mathcalZ]inGamma{E}^{p}erp$, $forallmathcalZinGamma{E}^{p}erp$ cite{V-iso}. A weak-Hamiltonian dynamical system is a vector field $X_H$ such that $(X_H,dH)in{E}^{p}erp$ $(Hin{C}^{i}nfty(M))$. We obtain the explicit expression of $X_H$ and of the integrability conditions of $E$ under the regularity condition $dim(p{r}_{T^{*}M}E)=const.$ We show that the port-controlled, Hamiltonian systems (in particular, constrained mechanics) cite{{BR},{DS}} may be interpreted as weak-Hamiltonian systems. Finally, we give reduction theorems for weak-Hamiltonian systems and a corresponding corollary for constrained mechanical systems.
