Stability analysis of complex, nonlinear dynamical systems is a challenge. The use of Lyapunov Characteristic Exponents through a Jacobian-less method is proposed as a means to identify the Maximum Lyapunov Characteristic Exponent, namely the fundamental stability indicator of a generic problem, solely from time series obtained through general-purpose multibody dynamics simulations of complex rotorcraft aeromechanics models. The method is first applied to a relatively simple scenario concerning the identification of ground resonance. Then, its application to more complex models is addressed by studying the aeroelastic stability and identifying the whirl flutter of the XV-15 tiltrotor using a comprehensive aeroelastic model.
