"Design and deploy improved and next generation vibration protection systems with this essential guide. Methods for designing vibration protection systems with negative and quasi-zero stiffness are formulated, explained, and demonstrated in practice. All key steps of the system design are covered, including the type and number synthesis, modelling and studying of stress-strain state under nonlinear post-buckling in using new composite structures, on-line optimal dimensioning, chaotic dynamics and stability conditions, and active motion control. In addition to coverage of underlying theory, practical applications in helicopters, construction equipment, buses, railroad trains, and agricultural machinery are included,. This volume is an excellent reference for researchers and practicing engineers as well as a tutorial for university students and professors with an interest in study, development and application of new and alternative methods of vibration protection"-- Provided by publisher.
