An adaptive vibration isolation system is proposed in this paper to combine the advantages of both linear and nonlinear isolators. Because of the proposed structural piecewise characteristics for different levels of response, the stiffness and damping properties could be designed according to the vibration performances. The adaptive stiffness and damping properties are achieved by the joined utilization of symmetrical precompression triangle-like structure (TLS) and column frame with cam. In order to design the control mechanism with optimum structural parameters, nonlinear vibration performances are analyzed by using averaging method and singularity theory. The parameter plane is divided into transition sets, and then the optimization criterions for structural design are provided according to multiple nonlinear vibration performances including frequency band for effective isolation, multisteady state band and resonance peak, etc. The experiment is carried out to verify the theoretical selection of desirable parameters and indicates the advantages and improvement of vibration isolation/suppression brought by the structural property adaptation. This study provides a novel method of achieving structural property adaptation for the improvement of isolation effectiveness, which shows the intelligent realization by passive components.
