Abstract:
1. A modular datacenter comprising: a server rack configured to hold a plurality of servers; a main beam configured to hold the server rack in a specific location within the modular datacenter; and a first attachment member coupled to the main beam and connected to the server rack, the first attachment member configured to apply a force to the server rack to put the server rack under compression or tension, and to change the natural frequency of the server rack based on the compression or the tension and on the location of the first attachment member with respect to the server rack; a slide member in physical communication with the main beam and coupled to the first attachment member, the slide member configured to slide vertically along the main beam to change the distance between the first attachment member and the server rack; a first isolation mount in physical communication with the first attachment member and coupled to the main beam, the first isolation mount configured to set a distance that the first attachment member is from the main beam, and further configured to isolate the server rack from vibrations produced by other components within the modular datacenter; a second attachment member coupled to a bottom of the modular datacenter, the second attachment member configured to support a weight of the server rack; a compression member in physical communication with the second attachment member and the server rack, the compression member configured to isolate the server rack from vibrations within the modular datacenter, wherein a compression of the compression member is affected by whether the first attachment member places the server rack under compression or tension; and a second isolation mount in physical communication with a base beam and with the second attachment member, the second isolation mount configured to set a distance that the second attachment member is from the beam, and further configured to isolate the server rack from vibrations within the modular datacenter.
