Isolation and transmissibility of shipboard equipment with carbon fiber reinforced polymer mount
… electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) with a relatively small mass and no rotating parts. The rubber isolator pad was not a good isolating pad compared to either CFRP or steel, which had comparable responses to impulse and step inputs as well as transmissibility or isolation. For …
