The vibration isolation system using a pair of oblique springs or a spring-rod mechanism as a negative stiffness mechanism exhibits a high-static low-dynamic stiffness characteristic and a nonlinear jump phenomenon when the system damping is light and the excitation amplitude is large. It is possible to remove the jump via adjusting the end trajectories of the above springs or rods. To realize this idea, the article presents a vibration isolation system with a cam–roller–spring–rod mechanism and gives the detailed numerical and experimental studies on the effects of the above mechanism on the vibration isolation performance. The comparative studies demonstrate that the vibration isolation system proposed works well and outperforms some other vibration isolation systems.

When designing technical structures, the safety of their elements is a fundamental principle. This highlights the significance of the proposed solution to the structural analysis of the trajectories of non-Gaussian stationary processes. The solution aims to acquire source data for calculating the stress-strength reliability of structural elements operating under random loads. We analyze an approach that makes it possible to account for the statistical dependence between processes and their derivatives, despite the apparent lack of correlation between them. The considered approach can be utilized in the design of vibration protection of transport vehicles to calculate the probability of a shock absorber breakdown, the probability of loss of the road-wheel contact, etc. The operation reliability of such systems is defined as the probability that the absolute maximum of the process does not exceed the specified standard level during a certain time interval. The article presents the reliability calculation using structural analysis on the example of a one-dimensional stochastic system.

The nonlinear characteristic of vibration control systems has attracted increasing attention for its advantage in improving structural performance. In this paper, a new type of viscoelastic damping limb-like-structure (VE-LLS) device is proposed by combing the viscoelastic (VE) damper and limb-like-structure (LLS) together, which possesses coupling nonlinearity characteristic caused by geometric and material factors, as well as a remarkable advantage in improving the control performance. First, to explore the nonlinear geometrical effects on the static stiffness of the VE-LLS device, a formula is derived from static stiffness, and the results are discussed. Second, dynamic analysis is performed of the proposed device considering the coupling geometrical and material nonlinearities in frequency domain, with the real-time effect of frequency and temperature on the mechanical properties of the viscoelastic damper considered in solving the nonlinear vibration equation. The harmonic balance method (HBM) is used to solve the nonlinear dynamic equation. Then, the displacement transmissibility of the VE-LLS device is calculated and assessed. The results indicate that the proposed device possesses excellent vibration isolation performance, and the geometric parameters of the viscoelastic damper have significant nonlinear effect on the performance. Finally, an experiment is carried out of the VE-LLS device to verify the accuracy of the static stiffness analysis. The results show that the theoretical results agree well the experimental ones, and that the theoretical results have high accuracy and reliability.

In the ultraprecision vibration isolation systems, it is desirable for the isolator to have a larger load bearing capacity and a broader isolation bandwidth simultaneously. Generally, pneumatic spring can bear large load and achieve relatively low natural frequency by enlarging its chamber volume. However, the oversized isolator is inconvenient to use and might cause instability. To reduce the size, a miniaturized pneumatic vibration isolator (MPVI) with high-static-low-dynamic stiffness (HSLDS) is developed in this paper. The volume of proposed isolator is minimized by a compact structure design that combines two magnetic rings in parallel with the pneumatic spring. The two magnetic rings are arranged in the repulsive configuration and can be mounted into the chamber to provide the negative stiffness. Then dynamic model of the developed MPVI is built and the isolation performances are analyzed. Finally, experiments on the isolator with and without the magnetic rings are conducted. The final experimental results are consistent with the dynamical model and verify the effectiveness of the developed vibration isolator.

Models of vibration isolators are very commonly used for the design and analysis of isolation systems. Accurate isolator modeling is critical for a successful prediction of the dynamic characteristics of isolated systems. Isolators exhibit a complex behavior that depends on multiple parameters such as frequency, displacement amplitude, temperature and loading conditions. Therefore, it is important to choose a model that is accurate while adequately representing the relationships with relevant parameters. Recent literature has indicated some inherent advantages of fractional derivatives that can be exploited in the modeling of elastomeric isolators. Furthermore, time delay of damping is also seen to provide a realistic representation of damping. This paper examines the Maxwell-Voigt model with fractional damping and a time delay. This model is compared with the conventional Maxwell-Voigt model (without time delay or fractional damping) and the Voigt model in order to comprehend the influence of fractional damping and time delay on dynamic characteristics. Multiple simulations are performed after identifying model parameters from the data collected for a passive elastomeric isolator. The analysis results are compared and it is observed that the Voigt model is highly sensitive to fractional damping as well as time delay.
