A three dimensional seismic isolation system was developed and experimentally validated for high-voltage electric power transformers of weight in the range of 300 to 800kip. Although the validation ...
Researchers have developed a novel negative-stiffness isolation device that offers a pioneering solution for seismic protection. The device, designed to provide multidirectional negative stiffness and ...
In this interview, Wes Wigglesworth, the Product Manager at TMC, talks to AZoM about their advanced hybrid vibration isolation system for optical tables. Laser Tables, also known as Optical Tables, ...
The rule of thumb “no active-on-active” states that a machine incorporating active vibration isolation (internally) cannot be mounted on a platform using active vibration control. This rule is ...
This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. Some of the worst abuses of components, boards, connectors, and electromechanical devices occur when testing and debugging. Simple acts such as probing a test ...
