This paper presents an effective energy criterion for identifying the dynamic stability of generalized structures through the modification of an earlier developed energy criterion for hardening structures. Two time-varying effective energy indices are introduced to account for the dynamic stability of both the hardening and deteriorating structures; one for the description of structural properties, i.e., the structural effective intrinsic energy, and the other for the measurement of the input energy, i.e., the valid external work. It is shown that a structure's stability can survive provided the effective intrinsic energy is always less than the valid external work during a dynamic excitation. The first passage of the effective intrinsic energy over the valid external work indicates the dynamic instability of the structure.
