Abstract

<jats:p>Three configurations that incorporate a negative stiffness element and an inerter in parallel connection into the conventional isolator are considered to investigate their vibration characteristics from the point of view of resonance frequencies and displacement transmissibility. Analytical and numerical results are evaluated and compared with each other. It is illustrated that for the configuration of the inerter and an additional viscous damper in series connection which are then connected with the negative stiffness element in parallel, the isolator shows a better vibration isolation performance.</jats:p>
