This compact, lightweight floor-mount or tabletop system uses active feedback control to provide vibration isolation not possible with standard passive systems. Rapidly adjusting to different loads ...

Sensitive optical experiments and high-resolution microscopes often need to be mounted on vibration-control platforms to avoid unwanted disturbances to measurements. Neil Savage describes a selection ...

This is achieved through the continuous measurement of floor vibration, which is countered in real time by expanding and contracting piezoelectric actuators to cancel out floor motion. Initially ...

KSI recommends and can offer onsite vibration surveys to determine the environmental information in buildings or facilities. If results indicate vibration amplitudes ...

The resolution of microscopies of all types is limited due to ambient vibration. It reduces the localizability of features in clear and obvious ways — this is a growing issue for the long acquisition ...

Negative-stiffness mechanical isolators can be used for achieving high-performance vibration isolation in a small microscope platform. It can be challenging to use microscopy for imaging materials, ...

• Traditional vibration-isolation models are too simple to generate accurate results. • More realistic models and associated equations lead to more-accurate vibration isolation. For a more-detailed ...

The idea is simple: Protect sensitive objects from vibrating floors and foundations. So is the basic vibration-isolation system model, found in most every vibration textbook, and shown in the ...

Cryogenics and vibration isolation may not be the most visible parts of a scientific setup, but they’re absolutely essential for instruments that require extreme precision. Whether you're working with ...

In this interview, Erik Runge, Director of Engineering at Minus K Technology talks to AZoNano about their range of Negative-Stiffness Vibration Isolators and why they are the preferred solution for ...

The Multiscale Microscopy Core of Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) extended its Collaborative Life Sciences Building to incorporate the advanced TFS Titan Krios cyro-transmission electron ...
