Elastomeric and lead-rubber bearings are two commonly used types of seismic isolation devices. During seismic events, some of the bearings in an isolation system will be …
Seismic base isolators are used extensively in buildings, bridges, and critical infrastructure. During a seismic event, these isolators simultaneously experience the service loads and the …
In this paper, the behavior of a natural rubber bearing system (NRBs) equipped with U- shaped dampers is investigated. The U-shaped dampers consist of shaped memory alloy …
Stability is one of the most important parameters to evaluate seismic base isolators. Previous research has illustrated the power of base isolators with single and multiple rubber cores …
Laminated elastomeric bearings are used widely as seismic isolation devices. Most previous studies on the horizontal behavior of elastomeric bearings have assumed that the rotations …
