A typical quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) vibration isolator consisting of a vertical spring and two oblique springs has been widely researched on its static and dynamic characteristics. A general criterion for determining structural parameters of QZS isolator is to achieve low nondimensional stiffness around the equilibrium position. However, lower nondimensional stiffness of linear isolator means lower isolation frequency, which may be invalid on QZS isolator. Because there is an implicit relationship between geometric parameter and stiffness ratio of QZS isolator, this study presents an improved optimization criterion for determining the optimal structural parameters of the typical QZS isolator. The optimization criterion is that the QZS isolator has the maximum displacement range around the equilibrium position without exceeding given natural frequency, rather than given nondimensional stiffness. The results show that isolator with these optimal parameters can achieve lower stiffness around the equilibrium position and better vibration isolation performance. Furthermore, an extended QZS isolator consisting of vertical spring with fixed stiffness and prestressed oblique springs is discussed to further improve stiffness characteristic. Better stiffness performance can be obtained when the prestressed oblique springs have softening stiffness and the exponent of the nonlinear stiffness is 2. Considering the existence of friction in practical application, the influence of friction on both static and dynamic characteristics is investigated. The analysis reveals that friction has little influence on its stiffness characteristic around the static equilibrium position and friction damping produced by friction affects the response amplitude and resonant frequency in dynamics.

This paper presents an analytical and experimental analysis of the characteristics of a squeeze-type magnetorheological (MR) mount which can be used for various vibration isolation areas. The concept of the squeeze-type mount and details of the design of a squeeze-type MR mount are discussed. These are followed by a detailed description of the test set-up for evaluating the dynamic behaviour of the mount. A series of tests was conducted on the prototype mount built for this study, in order to characterize the changes occurring as a result of changing electrical current to the mount. The results of this study show that increasing electrical current to the mount, which increases the yield stress of the MR fluid, will result in an increase in both stiffness and damping of the mount. The results also show that the mount hysteresis increases with increase in current to the MR fluid, causing changes in stiffness and damping at different input frequencies.

The head frame is a key component which plays a supportive and accommodative role in the spindle system of CNC machine tool. Improving the static and dynamic characteristics has profound significance to the development of machine tool and product performance. The simplified finite element modal is established with ANSYS to carry out the static and modal analysis. The results showed that the maximum deformation of the head frame was 0.0066mm, the maximum stress was 3.94Mpa, the deformation of most region was no more than 0.0007mm, which all verified that the head frame had a good stiffness and deforming resistance; several improvement measures for dynamic performance were also proposed by analyzing the mode shapes, and the 1st order natural frequency increased 7.33% while the head frame mass only increased 1.58% applying the optimal measure, which improved the dynamic characteristics of the head frame effectively.

This paper presents a theoretical study of the performance of constant power operated swash plate pumps equipped with hydromechanical controllers incorporating either pivoted levers or two feedback springs. Mathematical models of these controllers are derived and used to simulate the static and dynamic characteristics of a small pump of 40 cc/rev geometric volume. Results show that the controller with the pivoted lever renders better static and dynamic characteristics compared to the controllers with feedback springs. Results also show that changing the power through varying the lever arm length is preferable than varying the valve spring initial compression, when the dynamic characteristics of the pumps with controllers of pivoted levers are considered. The effect of the valve spring initial compression on the static performance of a pump incorporating a controller with two feedback springs is also investigated.
