Nonlinear vibration isolators with asymmetric stiffness

A vibration source is commonly coupled to a receiving structure by a vibration isolator. A key trade-off in the choice of vibration isolator is the requirement for a wide frequency range of isolation without excessive static deflection. This compromise can, in principle, be circumvented by employing...
