Morphology
equilibrial = equilibrium (transparent) = equilibrium + ial
Formed by a standard adjective-forming suffix added to the noun 'equilibrium', so the meaning 'relating to equilibrium' is directly derived.
Etymology
Equilibrial comes from the Latin parts aequus ('equal') and libra ('balance'), the same idea behind the English words equal and equilibrium. So, equilibrial describes something that is in a balanced or stable state.
