9780791801871: Passive Vibration Isolation

Synopsis

Provides background theory and practical solutions for engineers that face vibration problems causing equipment failure, downtime, and extra maintenance costs. It emphasizes proven, effective techniques that are not yet widely used on equipment for microelectronics, MEMS, and nanotechnology, as well as process plants, power generation, oil, gas, petrochemicals, and other industries. Vibration isolation is a vibration control technique in which the source of vibration excitation and the object to be protected are separated by an auxiliary system comprising special devices called vibration isolators or vibration isolating mounts. The four chapters of the book describe: basic analytical tools for designing such systems principles and criteria for assigning principal parameters (natural frequencies and damping values) necessary for successful functioning of passive vibration isolation systems for major groups of objects (vibration-sensitive objects, vibration-generating objects, general purpose machinery) static and dynamic characteristics of the most widely used materials for vibration isolators basic designs of vibration isolators for various applications Addressing practitioners, the book offers problems and solutions relevant not only to the isolation of stationary sensitive equipment, but also to civil engineering and transport applications. Today, tolerances on acceptable levels of vibration are becoming more stringent, just as the number and intensity of vibration sources is increasing - for example, as machine operating speeds become faster, or cutting inserts in machine tools improve to allow heavier cuts. Passive Vibration Isolation enables practitioners to make better informed and more effective choices when solving vibration problems.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Productionequipment for microelectronics, MEMS, and nanotechnology cannotfunction without vibration isolation. Process plant, powergeneration machinery, oil, gas, and petrochemical equipment are allsubject to vibration. This vibration causes a range of problems andheadaches for the engineer that can lead to failure of equipment, downtime, and extra maintenancecosts. Isolating vibration and ameliorating it is vital. This valuable and well–written text provides acomprehensive treatment of the principles of design and means forrealization of passive vibration isolation systems for real–lifeobjects. A special emphasis is given to effective techniques andmethods that are not yet widely used in the practice of vibrationisolation in industry.  It is written with practitioners inmind and many of the problems addressed and the solutions presentedare relevant not only to the isolation of stationary sensitiveequipment but also to civil engineering and transport applications. CONTENTS INCLUDE Inertia and geometric properties of typical machines and othermechanical devices Dynamics of single–degreeof–freedom vibration isolationsystem Vibration isolation system under random excitation Isolation of vibration–sensitive objects Vibration isolation systems; Isolation requirements forvibration producing objects Engine and machinery mounting in vehicles Elasto–damping materials (EDM) High damping metals Material selection for vibration isolators Vibration isolators with metal flexible elements High angular stiffness and anisotropic vibration isolationsystems Pneumatic isolators Power transmission couplings
