A sensitive electronic system, of mass 25 kg, is supported by a spring-damper isolator that rests on the floor of a manufacturing plant. The operation of nearby rotating equipment causes the floor to vibrate with an amplitude of 8 mm at a frequency of 35 Hz. The electronic system can only operate effectively if the amplitude of its acceleration is less than 40 m/s2. It is known that the damping ratio of the isolator is 0.1. i. Determine the maximum stiffness of the isolator needed for the transmitted acceleration level to be acceptable and hence facilitate effective operation of the electronic system. Using the calculated stiffness value, also determine the largest deformation of the spring in millimetres when the system is in motion. ii. If the damping ratio is allowed to increase by only increasing the equivalent damping coefficient (c) of the isolator, discuss the effect this change would have on the response of the electronic system when operating in the same environment.
