Stability of indefinitely damped mechanical system with diagonal stiffness
I'm trying to find conditions for the asymptotic stability of the following linear system,
\begin{equation}
\mathbf{I \ddot{x}} + \mathbf{B \dot{x}} + \mathbf{K x} = 0
\end{equation}
given the ...

Finding the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of Jacobian at equilibrium point of nonlinear ODEs
Consider the vector field $V:\mathbb{R}^4\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^4$, defined by
\begin{equation}
V(x,v,M_0,M_1)=(v,\kappa^{-1}(\beta M_0-v-kx),-M_0+v M_1,-M_1+1-vM_0),
\end{equation}
such that $\...
