In this paper we discuss C1-linearisations of diffeomorphisms and flows on Banach spaces. Strong foliations of the neighbourhood of the fixed point composed of leaves based on successively larger subspaces (similar to those in [14]) are constructed. Generalised gap conditions which involve the width and separation of vertical bands containing the spectrum of a linear operator are imposed to achieve maximal smoothness. The method of proof generalises that of Hartman and of Mora and Solá-Morales. Our theorems apply to weakly coupled systems of damped wave and beam equations.
