Abstract
A survey of the selected published criteria ? expressed by the properties of the system matrices ? for the stability and instability of linear mechanical systems subjected to potential and circulatory forces is presented. In particular, recent generalizations of the well-known Merkin instability theorem are reported. Several simple numerical examples are used to illustrate the usefulness of the presented criteria and also to compare them.
