In stiff oscillatory systems often a reduction of the order of the system is possible by splitting the motion into an essential motion on a nearby slow manifold and neglecting the fast motion. However, if the system is conservative the question of stability of the slow motion is a delicate problem. For various spring pendulum systems we, first, perform numerical simulations showing that if the stiffness of the springs is gradually reduced the slow motion looses stability. For a single spring pendulum we give an explanation of this loss of stability. (© 2004 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
