Modeling and Analysis of Passive Vibration Isolators and Systems provides readers with a general background on vibration isolation and the modeling of single and multiple degree-of-freedom systems. Other sections cover a range of models that can be used in each system, discussing the pros and cons of the models and providing guidance on model selection. introduce models that can be used to comprehend some of the nonlinearities associated with the design of vibration isolation systems, and discuss specific attributes associated with elastomeric materials that need to be considered during the design and analysis of passive vibration isolators, along with applied examples that can be used for reference.
Specific models from previous chapters are used to demonstrate the influence of model selection and parameter sensitivity. Practical exercises are highlighted at the end of each chapter, and appendices featuring differential equations and matrix algebra examples provide mathematical background in support of preceding chapters.
