Passive Shock Isolation Utilising Dry Friction

Figure 17

The measured acceleration transmissibility measured from the experiment for the case of no friction and thin secondary beam. (a) The primary system response. Solid line: acceleration at the end of the first beam (sensor 2). Dashed line: predicted acceleration of the primary mass using fitted parameters. (b) The secondary system response. Solid line: acceleration at the end of the secondary beam (sensor 3). Dashed line: predicted acceleration of the secondary mass using fitted parameters.
