โฆ Synopsis
We study the nonlinear stability of the equilibria corresponding to the motion of a particle orbiting around a two finite orthogonal straight segment. The potential is a logarithmic function and may be considered as an approximation to the one generated by irregular celestial bodies. Using Arnold's theorem for non-definite quadratic forms we determine the nonlinear stability of the equilibria, for all values of the parameter of the problem. Moreover, the resonant cases are determined and the stability is investigated.

The relative equilibria of a plane three-link pendulum with a suspension rotating about a vertical axis in a gravitational force field are investigated. The pendulum is modelled as a system of three point masses, joined in tandem by massless non-elastic rods using cylindrical hinges. All the trivial
