... engineering vibration isolation Base isolation technology has been recognized as a promising technique to safeguard both existing and new structures. Among the base isolators developed in the past, a friction pendulum system (FPS) isolation device consisting of a concave sliding surface...

... components on a vibration-isolation table. A MATLAB software is developed for image acquisition and phase data calculations that yield the out-of-plane surface deformation caused by the bolt preload. The test fixture uses an M12 steel fastener and aluminum joint. For miniature screw applications, however...
