AN EXTENSION OF THE HURWITZ CRITERION--THE PARAMETER VARIATION METHOD

In developing new mechanical systems, the overall stability of motion should be determined in the early stage of development. Hurwitz criterion makes possible such an analytical stability study. Such a technique rapidly becomes ineffective as the number of degrees of freedom increases. The parameter variation method can make up for this deficiency of the Hurwitz criterion.
