stöðugleikafel
Stöðugleikafel is an Icelandic term used in technical literature to denote a stability factor—a dimensionless quantity that expresses how resistant a system is to losing stability under perturbations or parameter changes. The exact meaning and calculation of stöðugleikafel vary by field, but it generally compares a system's stabilizing capacity to destabilizing influences and yields a threshold or margin for stable operation.
In structural engineering, the concept relates to how close a structure is to instability such as buckling,
Calculation and interpretation are field dependent: a higher stöðugleikafel value generally indicates greater stability, but the
