An Equivariant Liapunov Stability Test and the Energy–momentum–casimir Method
We present an equivariant Liapunov stability criterion for dynamical systems with symmetry. This result yields a simple proof of the energy–momentum–Casimir stability analysis of relative equilibria of equivariant Hamiltonian systems.
متن کاملThe Energy-Momentum Method for the Stability of Nonholonomic Systems
In this paper we analyze the stability of relative equilibria of nonholonomic systems (that is, mechanical systems with nonintegrable constraints such as rolling constraints). In the absence of external dissipation, such systems conserve energy, but nonetheless can exhibit both neutrally stable and asymptotically stable, as well as linearly unstable relative equilibria. To carry out the stabili...
متن کاملNonlinear Stability of Stationary Plasmas - An Extension of the Energy-Casimir Method
We describe the time evolution of a nonrelativistic, collisionless plasma by the Vlasov–Poisson system. In [G. Rein, Math. Methods Appl. Sci., 17 (1994), pp. 1129–1140], the energy-Casimir method was used to prove nonlinear stability of steady states where the phase-space density of the particles is a decreasing function of the particle energy. In the present paper we extend this method to stea...
متن کاملStability analysis of predator-prey models via the Liapunov method.
As is well known from the classical applications in the electrical and mechanical sciences, energy is a suitable Liapunov function; thus, by analogy, all energy functions proposed in ecology are potential Liapunov functions. In this paper, a generalized Lotka-Volterra model is considered and the stability properties of its non-trivial equilibrium are studied by means of an energy function first...
متن کاملAllais , Stability , and Liapunov Theory
To make a discovery is to achieve one of the closest approximations to a property right that the scientific career affords. Professional prestige is often closely associated with these acquisitions. Small wonder, then, that acrimonious disputes about priority and independence in discovery have often marred the normally placid tenor of scientific communication. Even less wonder that many histori...
