Abstract
The theory of seismic isolation has many features in common with the better known theory of vibration isolation. Although there are some distinct differences between them—mainly associated with the degree to which the vibrational disturbance and the amplitude of the displacements in the support system are known—it is valuable to discuss basic vibration isolation theory as a baseline for a development of seismic isolation theory.
