A tunable high-static–low-dynamic stiffness vibration isolator (2010, methodology): “For example, in [3,4], a QZS isolator was obtained by connecting a vertical coil spring and two oblique coil springs.”
On the analytical and experimental assessment of the performance of a quasi-zero-stiffness isolator (2014, background): “Carrella and colleagues (2007a) put forward a simple QZS system with threespring configuration, and particularly studied the static characteristic and the optimization (Carrella et al., 2006, 2007b) of the device.”
On zero stiffness (2014, background): “stiffness around the quasi-zero-stiffness configuration.(19,39) Nonetheless, applications for large-displacement vibration isolation systems exist, including the Steadicam,(21) and accurate gravity measurement devices.”
