Abstract

Methods and apparatus for isolation system according to various aspects of the present invention comprise a plurality of elastic elements disposed in one or more planes between an equipment body and a mounting structure and are not symmetric about the center of gravity of the equipment body. The isolation system is configured to modally decouple vibration along one axis from other axes of vibration and provide an isoelastic mounting system in up to all six degrees of freedom.
