unstable equilibrium
  ترازمندی ِ ناپایدار   
tarâzmandi-ye nâpâydâr

Fr.: équilibre instable   

An equilibrium state of a system in which if a small perturbation away from equilibrium is applied, the system will move farther away from equilibrium state. For example, mechanical equilibrium in which the potential energy is a maximum, as a sphere placed on top of a hill. Mathematically, if the second derivative of the energy with respect to the coordinate of interest is negative, the system is in an unstable equilibrium. → stable equilibrium.

unstable; → equilibrium.

virial equilibrium
  ترازمندی ِ ویریال   
tarâzmandi-ye viriyâl

Fr.: équilibre du viriel   

The condition of a physical system which obeys the → virial theorem.

virial; → equilibrium.
