A number of sufficient conditions of practical μ-stability are given. An example of using the results obtained is consideredSubjectsSTABILITY (Mechanics); NONLINEAR systems; STRENGTH of materials; STRAINS &; stresses (Mechanics); CONTACT mechanics; PENETRATION mechanics; APPLIED mechanicsPublicationInternational Applied Mechanics, 2007, Vol 43, Issue 7, p816ISSN1063-7095Publication typeArticleDOI10.1007/s10778-007-0083-x
