Draw a hill between two valleys, and a ball that can rest in either, after being pushed by an outside force from one to the other, and rolling back and forth as it settles. — Omegatron 19:09, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm having trouble deciphering this one: "These rest states need not be symmetric with respect to stored energy." Could someone elaborate please? 155.97.15.182 ( talk) 02:55, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
Umm.. I'm unsure about whether the "Sonic the Hedgehog" paragraph is legit. Can we have a source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.213.163.122 ( talk) 20:39, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
I think this reference is correct. Geneticists have some crazy names for their genes. — Preceding

Can anyone clarify the usage of 'over centre', or better yet provide a reference for its usage? Would a light switch, for instance, be said to be 'over center' when it is in a stable state, or would it be 'over center' when it is in transition from one state to the next? Would you say of a mechanism 'it is moving over center' or just 'it is over center'? -- Spasemunki ( talk) 13:44, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
I think Bistable Structure should be merged into a section here. This page already has mentioned and well described mechanical aspects of the term. The other page is small and backed by only one source.
