Journal ArticleDOI
Force and displacement transmissibility of a nonlinear isolator with high-static-low-dynamic-stiffness
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dynamic behavior of a nonlinear isolator supporting a lumped mass by modelling the dynamic system as a single-degree-of-freedom system.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the force transmissibility of a vibration isolator with quasi-zero stiffness
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the force transmissibility of a quasi-zero-stiffness isolator, which consists of a vertical spring and two oblique springs that are either linear, linear with pre-stress or softening nonlinear with prestress.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the design of a high-static-low-dynamic stiffness isolator using linear mechanical springs and magnets
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a highstatic-low-dynamic stiffness (HSLDS) mount, which consists of two vertical mechanical springs between which an isolated mass is mounted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite element analysis of the vibrations of waveguides and periodic structures
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of wave and finite element (FE) approaches is presented to calculate the forced response of a structural component using a set of basis functions for the analysis of the structure as a whole.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of semi-active damping control strategies for vibration isolation of harmonic disturbances
TL;DR: In this article, a semi-active damper is incorporated into a single-degree-of-freedom (sdof) system model subject to base excitation, and its performance is evaluated in terms of the root-mean-square (rms) acceleration transmissibility, and is compared with those of a passive damper and an ideal skyhook damper.
