Abstract
The majority of the current research on the mounting system has emphasised on the low/medium power engine, rare
work has been reported for the high-speed and heavy-duty engine, the vibration characteristics of which exhibits
significantly increased complexity and uncertainty. In this work, a general dynamics model was firstly established to
describe the dynamic properties of a mounting system with various numbers of mounts. Then, this model was employed
for the optimization of the mounting system. A modified Powell conjugate direction method was developed to improve
the optimization efficiency. Basing on the optimization results obtained from the theoretical model, a mounting system
was constructed for a V6 diesel engine. The experimental measurement of the vibration intensity of the mounting
systems shows excellent agreement with the theoretical calculations, indicating the validity of the model. This dynamics
model opens a new avenue in assessing and designing the mounting system for a high-speed and heavy-duty engine. On
the other hand, the delineated dynamics model, and the optimization algorithm should find wide applications for other
mounting systems, such as the power transmission system which usually has various uncertain mounts.
