Motion near equilibrium - Small Oscillations
... leads to a rapid motion away from equilibrium. If k = 0, then the critical point q0 is not a maximum or minimum but is a saddle point (“neutral equilibrium”); our approximation again becomes invalid, although the time scale for this is larger than the case of unstable equilibrium. Thus in a neighbor ...

Hunting oscillation

Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
