  2. Stability derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_derivatives

    X stability axis is aligned into the direction of the oncoming air in steady flight. (It is projected into the plane made by the X and Z body axes if there is sideslip). Y stability axis is the same as the Y body-fixed axis. Z stability axis is perpendicular to the plane made by the X stability axis and the Y body axis.

  3. Longitudinal stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitudinal_stability

    The longitudinal stability of an aircraft, also called pitch stability, [2] refers to the aircraft's stability in its plane of symmetry [2] about the lateral axis (the axis along the wingspan). [1] It is an important aspect of the handling qualities of the aircraft, and one of the main factors determining the ease with which the pilot is able ...

  5. Ship stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_stability

    Ship stability is an area of naval architecture and ship design that deals with how a ship behaves at sea, both in still water and in waves, whether intact or damaged. Stability calculations focus on centers of gravity, centers of buoyancy, the metacenters of vessels, and on how these interact.

  6. Circle criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_criterion

    In nonlinear control and stability theory, the circle criterion is a stability criterion for nonlinear time-varying systems. It can be viewed as a generalization of the Nyquist stability criterion for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems.

  7. Nyquist stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_stability_criterion

    The Nyquist plot for () = + + with s = jω.. In control theory and stability theory, the Nyquist stability criterion or Strecker–Nyquist stability criterion, independently discovered by the German electrical engineer Felix Strecker [] at Siemens in 1930 [1] [2] [3] and the Swedish-American electrical engineer Harry Nyquist at Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1932, [4] is a graphical technique ...

  8. Marginal stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_stability

    Since the locations of the marginal poles must be exactly on the imaginary axis or unit circle (for continuous time and discrete time systems respectively) for a system to be marginally stable, this situation is unlikely to occur in practice unless marginal stability is an inherent theoretical feature of the system.
