The vibration sensitivities of optical cavities depending on the support area were investigated, both numerically and experimentally. We performed numerical simulations with two models: one with total constraint of the support area, and the other with only vertical constraint. An optimal support condition insensitive to the support's area could be found by numerical simulation. The support area was determined in the experiment by a Viton rubber pad. The vertical, transverse, and longitudinal vibration sensitivities were measured experimentally. The experimental result agreed with the numerical simulation of a sliding model (only vertical constraint).
