Abstract
The ecological structures of some organisms that could resist environmental vibration naturally (such as dragonfly, woodpecker and legs of cursorial animals) uncovered by biologists inspire people a new approach to overcome the above problem. In this paper, a new shock isolation system consisting of a pedestal, a rubber layer, an air spring and a shearing viscoelastic damper is designed, fabricated, and characterized to avoid the performance deterioration and physical damage of mechanical manufacturing devices from external mechanical excitations. The nonlinear dynamics model of the platform is developed and the dynamic characteristics are analyzed using numerical analysis. The displacement and velocity response are obtained. The results demonstrate that the stiffness and damping characteristic of the platform change with excitation frequency. The vibration isolation effectiveness will be greatly enhanced.
