Abstract:The plane supporting spring, the radial stiffness of which is considered as one of the most significant parameters in design process and application, is commonly used in the isolation instruments in the fields of aeronautics, astronautics, auto industry, etc. Proposed in this paper is a force-based theoretical method for computing the radial stiffness of multi-spiral supporting spring, which is obtained by solving the component force and radial displacement of each spiral line using the force and energy approa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
