Abstract

Modern electronic systems, computer hardware and navigation equipment on board moving objects can be subjected to significant mechanical impulse and vibrational impacts. These impacts can introduce additional errors in readings of devices, and sometimes lead to their mechanical failure. One of the effective ways to solve the problem is to apply the method of passive vibration protection, which makes it possible to reduce vibrations due to the use of damping elements. This paper examines the vibration response of a device mounted on a moving platform. The device is protected against vibration by 4 dampers. The platform is subjected to translational motions in three mutually orthogonal directions. This leads to the appearance of coupled translational and rotational vibrations of the protected unit. The problem is solved within the framework of the general theory of the dynamic of a rigid body. The paper presents the results of numerical experiments, in which the intensity of rotational vibrations of the protected unit is investigated depending on various mechanical characteristics of the system. Admissible variation of these characteristics, at which the angular acceleration of the protected unit remains below a limit value, has been determined.
