METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING SWAYING OF AN OBJECT

摘要

A method of configuring a mount or of controlling sway in an object (16) to be mounted includes configuring isolators (20) of the mount to put a center of elasticity (42) of the flexible mount at a desired height relative to a base (18) of the mount. This desired distance may be at a location of expected minimum clearance between the object to be mounted and the structure expected to surround the object to be mounted and is the center of rotation of the flexible mount. The location of the center of elasticity also may be farther from the base than a center of mass or gravity (40) of the object to be mounted.
