TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

The X-shaped anti-vibration structure can provide flexible and adjustable stiffness up to zero and adjustable nonlinear damping characteristic i.e., high damping for high vibration but low damping for small vibration.

Primary Application Area: Manufacturing, Instrumentation

Technology Development Status: Prototype

FIGURES OF MERIT

Value Proposition: Pure passive system;
Need only structure design or adjustment;
Flexible in usage of different size;
High static but low dynamic stiffness;
High damping at resonant frequencies but low at all others.
