Abstract
This paper presents a vibration isolation system using negative stiffness suspension. The vibration isolation system is developed by combining a positive stiffness suspension in series with a negative stiffness suspension. The developed system could realize zero-compliance to direct disturbance, as well as ground vibration isolation. In the previous system, the ground vibration and, the static and low frequency sinusoidal direct disturbances were efficiently suppressed. However, there was a reverse action in case of impulse or step wise disturbance. Therefore, a peak was appeared which was, sometimes, larger than the displacement caused by the step load. This unpleasant response might hamper the objective function of many advanced systems. In this research, a feedforward controller is added in combination with zero-power control to overcome this problem. Some experimental results are presented to verify the proposed control system in a vibration isolation apparatus.
