Abstract

Some problems of stability of equilibrium and motion have been put in evidence, in an incipient form, in the frame of Newtonian mechanics, in several of the preceding chapters; but these problems need a more profound study, with a general character, in the frame of Lagrangian or Hamiltonian mechanics. The motion of a mechanical system \({\mathcal S}\) can take the form of linear or even non-linear vibrations; the corresponding mechanical phenomenon needs a thorough study in a general form too.
