2. Vibration isolation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibration_isolation

   Elastomer pads, dense closed cell foams and laminate materials are often used under heavy machinery, under common household items, in vehicles and even under higher performing audio systems. [citation needed] Molded and bonded rubber and elastomeric isolators and mounts These are often used as machinery (such as engines) [3] mounts or in ...

3. Shock mount - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_mount

   Shock mount. Transit case showing internal shock mounting. A shock mount or isolation mount is a mechanical fastener that connects two parts elastically to provide shock and vibration isolation. Isolation mounts allow equipment to be securely mounted to a foundation and/or frame and, at the same time, allow it to float independently from it.

4. Elastomeric bridge bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastomeric_bridge_bearing

   Elastomeric bearing pads, to serve as bridge beam supports heads. An elastomeric bridge bearing, also known as a pot bearing or elastomeric bearing, is a commonly used modern bridge bearing. The term encompasses several different types of bearings including bearing pads, bridge bearings, laminated elastomeric bearings, and seismic isolators ...

5. Seismic base isolation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_base_isolation

   Seismic base isolation, also known as base isolation, [3] or base isolation system, [4] is one of the most popular means of protecting a structure against earthquake forces. [5] It is a collection of structural elements which should substantially decouple a superstructure from its substructure that is in turn resting on the shaking ground, thus ...

6. Bushing (isolator) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushing_(isolator)

   Bushing (isolator) A bushing or rubber bushing is a type of vibration isolator. It provides an interface between two parts, damping the energy transmitted through the bushing. A common application is in vehicle suspension systems, where a bushing made of rubber (or, more often, synthetic rubber or polyurethane [1]) separates the faces of two ...

7. Earthquake engineering - Wikipedia

   Springs-with-damper base isolator; Springs-with-damper close-up. Springs-with-damper base isolator installed under a three-story town-house, Santa Monica, California is shown on the photo taken prior to the 1994 Northridge earthquake exposure. It is a base isolation device conceptually similar to Lead Rubber Bearing.
