TLDR
In this article, a simple system comprising a vertical spring acting in parallel with two oblique springs is studied, and it is shown that there is a unique relationship between the geometry and the stiffness of the springs that yields a system with zero dynamic stiffness at the static equilibrium position.About:

A study of a nonlinear vibration isolator with a quasi-zero stiffness characteristic
TL;DR: In this paper, a vibration isolator consisting of a vertical linear spring and two nonlinear pre-stressed oblique springs is considered, and the softening parameter leading to quasi-zero dynamic stiffness at the equilibrium position is obtained as a function of the initial geometry, pre-stress and the stiffness of the springs.

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.

Energy Harvesting From Vibrations With a Nonlinear Oscillator
TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear electromagnetic energy harvesting device with a broadly resonant response was presented, which is generated by a particular arrangement of magnets in conjunction with an iron-cored stator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in micro-vibration isolation
TL;DR: A review of the vibration isolation theory and/or methods which were developed, mainly over the last decade, specifically for or potentially could be used for, micro-vibration control can be found in this paper.

Book
A Course of Modern Analysis
TL;DR: The volume now gives a somewhat exhaustive account of the various ramifications of the subject, which are set out in an attractive manner and should become indispensable, not only as a textbook for advanced students, but as a work of reference to those whose aim is to extend the knowledge of analysis.

Passive Vibration Isolation
TL;DR: In this article, the principles of design and means for realization of passive vibration isolation systems for real-life objects are discussed, and a special emphasis is given to effective techniques and methods that are not yet widely used in the practice of vibration isolation in industry.

Negative-stiffness-mechanism vibration isolation systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the negative-stiffness mechanism is used to cancel the stiffness of a spring suspension, which increases the hysteretic damping of a vibration isolation system.
