A norm of the initial conditions || X 0 || and a norm of the system response || X (t)|| are related to each other, resulting in stability numbers depending on the initial conditions. This concept presents some information on the global behaviour of the system including all types of solutions from limit cycles to strange attractors. The stability numbers characterize that part of the state space in which the motion occurs.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNichtlineares dynamisches System , Mehrkörpersystem , Dynamische Stabilität620conferenceObject
