Abstract
This paper uses results from the theory of reversible dynamical system s to examine the nonlinear stability of undamped follower force system s. The well-known dissipation-induced destabilization found in these s ystems is also examined and it is indicated how the postdestabilizatio n dynamics can be determined using normal forms and an eigenvalue spli tting criterion.
