Systems that provide protection from impact, shock and vibration are held up by
sophisticated physical principles. In this volume, the author explores those
principles in a straightforward manner. All aspects of the theory of optimal
isolation are presented, from a description of the systems that use these
principles to the design of such systems and the limits of the approach. The
text offers several examples of how optimal isolation has been applied in real-
world situations, thus serving to emphasize and elucidate the explanation of
the theory. Optimal Protection From Impact, Shock and Vibration is ideal for
applied engineers and mathematicians, whether students or professionals, who
need to understand optimal protection.
