Project Title: Multi-axis, multi-mount vibration isolation of rigid bodies from flexible structures

Vibrating machinery must be isolated from a supporting structure if the vibration is likely to cause fatigue of components or annoyance to people due to direct vibration exposure or from the noise radiated by the vibrating structure. Active vibration isolation can be applied in these situations to extend the low frequency performance of passive vibration isolators. In this project, theoretical and experimental investigations are described for a vibrating rigid body that is passively and actively isolated from a beam and a cylinder, respectively. The focus of the work is to investigate the vibrational power transmitted by translational forces and rotational moments into the support structure.
