Summary

Application of perturbation methods to the study of transition to/from chaotic motion and determination of the system parameter critical values are discussed. The qT-periodic motion is definied by low order approximate solution obtained by perturbation methods. Higher order instabilities are examined by considering the variational Hills type equation. The instabilities which bring a build-up of 2qT harmonic components, or even order harmonics in symmetric systems, are determined in the first or second approximation, and are identified as the approximate criteria for chaos.
