Abstract
Response control techniques such as a base-isolation and a vibration control have been a general vibration reduction system for upgrading of seismic safety or habitability improvement in civil and architectural structure after Kobe earthquake. In such state in Japan, an application of the vibration reduction device to a small-scale structure has been carried out actively in recent years. Especially, in the important institution of the cities such as refuge place, hospital, school, information and communication institution where function maintenance is needed, it is important to maintain its performance of the machinery and equipment in the facility with an upgrade of structural seismic safety. Moreover, in the future, upgrading of seismic safety of the particular equipments is urgent business. This study has been examined a compact and low cost damping device for a base-isolation system of light weight mechanical structures like a computer server rack. In this paper, experimental and analytical results on the performances of the product type damping device using damping effect caused by Eddy-Current are described.
