Seismic Analysis and Response of Highway Bridges with Hybrid Isolation
AbstractIn this study hybrid isolation is proposed as an alternative to (full) seismic isolation for minimizing bridge damage in strong earthquakes. In this technique isolators are only used at the abutments, and monolithic or pinned connections remain at the piers. Both full and hybrid isolation …

Combined Shock and Vibration Isolation Through the Self-Powered, Semi-Active Control of a Magnetorheological Damper in Parallel with an Air Spring
Combining shock and vibration isolation into a single isolation system package is explored through the use of an air spring in parallel with a controlled magnetorheological fluid damper. The benefits of combining shock and vibration isolation into a single package is discussed. Modeling and control …

Enhancing signal to noise ratio for electrostatic transducers
… the inherent noise using a specially designed hybrid isolation vessel has been developed. From the measurement, the FLAUT noise is found to be 5.8 W, an improvement of 2.7 dB compared to the conventional cavity only design.
