Aircraft Engine Isolators
All mounting systems need to accomplish two basic functions: constrain motion and provide vibration isolation and noise reduction.
To provide the first basic function the mounting system must be stiff to minimize relative motions. In order to minimize transmitted vibration (or noise), the mounting system must be dynamically soft. This inherent problem sets up competing objectives that require compromise and flexibility in the engine attachment design.
