Abstract:

Un-bonded fiber reinforced elastomeric isolator (U-FREI) is light weight and facilitates easier installation in comparison to conventional steel reinforced elastomeric isolators (SREI), in which fiber layers are used as reinforcement to replace steel shims as are normally used in conventional isolators. Shear modulus of elastomer has significant influence on the force-displacement relationship of U-FREI. However, a few studies investigated the effect of shear modulus on the horizontal behavior of prototype U-FREI in literature. In this study, effect of shear modulus on performance of prototype U-FREIs is investigated by both experiment and finite element (FE) analysis. It is observed that reduction in horizontal stiffness of U-FREI with increasing horizontal displacement is due to both rollover deformation (or reduction in contact area of isolator with supports) and shear modulus of elastomer. Reasonable agreement is observed between the findings from experiment and FE analysis. Keywords: base isolator; prototype un-bonded fiber reinforced elastomeric isolator; rollover deformation; shear modulus; cyclic test.

Abstract:

Steel reinforced elastomeric isolators are currently the most used bearings for seismic isolation purposes. The steel reinforcements are cut to the desired shape, sandblasted, cleaned with acid, and coated with bonding compound during the manufacturing process. Then the elastomer and steel layers are stacked in a mold and subjected to vulcanization so that they are glued together and constitute a single body. Good adhesion between the layers is very important for the correct functioning of the device. Adhesion conditions become critical when the isolators are subjected to tensile stresses, which arise under direct tensile actions or large shear strains. To analyze the influence of changes in the manufacturing process on the isolator adhesive behavior, the authors performed tensile tests on square-shaped small-scale specimens rather than expensive shear tests on full-scale isolators. Hence, the adhesion behavior between elastomer and steel layers was investigated through the tensile tests discussed herein. Among the influencing parameters that were considered, it was found that an increase in vulcanization time does not improve the adhesion, but it may actually worsen the capacity of the isolator in terms of strength. Moreover, it was found that using elastomer without an oily component improves the adhesion between the layers and increases the isolator’s dissipative capacity.

Abstract:

The theoretical analysis for the buckling of isolators is well known and has generally been verified by experimental work, but there are some aspects of the analysis that have not been addressed in detail. This paper will study two examples, first the effect of end plate rotation on the buckling load and, secondly, the buckling of an isolator that is made up of two bearings, one on the top of the others. The effect of end plate rotation on the buckling load arises in situations where the stiffness of the superstructure is not high enough to ensure that the isolator is constrained against rotation at the top; this is often the case when retrofitting existing structures. The influence of the flexibility of the superstructure on the horizontal stiffness of the isolator and the reduction of the critical load due to this flexibility is evaluated in the paper. The results show a significant reduction of the critical load. The second analysis presented in the paper models the buckling of a composite isolator that is made up of two bearings, one on top of the other. Two approaches for evaluating the critical load of this composite isolator are discussed, and an approximate method is developed that provides results close to the complete solution.

Abstract:

The elastomeric diaphragm is widely used in pneumatic vibration isolators, and the relevant model is often ignored due to its complexity. Considering that the ignored model of the elastomeric diaphragm in pneumatic vibration isolators plays an important role in the discrepancy between the predicted and practical behavior, this paper develops an analytical model for the elastomeric diaphragm using the Mooney-Rivlin modeling method and elastomeric theory. Specifically, the elastomeric diaphragm consists of several segments in the axial section. After considering the structural restriction, each segment can be simplified as uniaxial stretching, and the force-strain equation can be established for each segment. By combining the equations of all segments, an analytical model of the elastomeric diaphragm can be built and solved via numerical methods. The developed model is added to the standard model of pneumatic cylinders to supply a complete analytical model for pneumatic vibration isolators. The experimental results demonstrate that the analytically predicted behavior is similar to the practical behavior. The proposed analytical model can be used as a guide for the parameter design of pneumatic isolators in practice.

Abstract:

The article presents the studies of the elastomeric isolator performance under static loads. The solutions of the problems have been obtained by means of a specialized software complex by direct integration of the motion equations according to the implicit scheme. For calculation of the elastomeric isolator, a 3D computational model comprised by solid finite elements has been used. Based on the results of the studies performed, the diagrams for displacement of the points of the top of the support have been plotted with the horizontal shear of the support. The possibility of formation of tilting in the upper plate of the elastomeric isolator has been proved. The diagram of residual horizontal displacements of the support after the horizontal load removal has been obtained. The inability of elastomeric isolators to return independently to the initial equilibrium position without additional devices has been proved.

Abstract:

В работе приведено обоснование целесообразности замены резины на полиуретановые эластомеры при изготовлении виброизоляторов. Показано, что современные полиуретановые эластомеры имеют ряд неоспоримых преимуществ по сравнению с традиционным эластомером – резиной.В статье представлено решение дифференциального уравнения движения колебательной системы для двух случаев: первый – когда силы сопротивления отсутствуют и второй – когда свободные колебания происходят с затуханием под действием внутреннего трения в эластомерном материале. Указано, что с точки зрения лучшего гашения свободных колебаний, увеличение гистерезисных потерь в виброизоляционном материале играет положительную роль.В работе приведено подробное описание специального стенда для измерения упруго-диссипативных свойств виброизоляторов по трем направлениям. Стенд позволяет определить основные регламентируемые ГОСТ 27242-87 характеристики: статическую жесткость, демпфирование и минимальную внутреннюю собственную частоту.Проведенные экспериментальные исследования показали перспективность применения нового для отечественного машиностроения эластомерного материала. The paper provides a rationale for the expediency of replacing rubber with polyurethane elastomers in the manufacture of vibration insulators. It is shown that modern polyurethane elastomers have a number of indisputable advantages over the traditional elastomer - rubber.The article presents a solution to the differential equation of motion of an oscillatory system for two cases: the first - when there are no resistance forces and the second - when free vibrations occur with damping under the action of internal friction in an elastomeric material. It is indicated that from the point of view of better damping of free vibrations, an increase in hysteresis losses in a vibration-insulating material plays a positive role.The paper provides a detailed description of a special stand for measuring the elastic-dissipative properties of vibration isolators in three directions. The stand allows you to determine the main characteristics regulated by GOST 27242-87: static stiffness, damping and the minimum internal natural frequency.Experimental studies have shown the promise of using a new elastomeric material for domestic mechanical engineering.

Abstract:

This paper describes an experimental and theoretical study of the feasibility of using fiber reinforcement to produce lightweight low-cost elastomeric isolators for application to housing, schools and other public buildings in highly seismic areas of the developing world. The theoretical analysis covers the mechanical characteristics of multi-layer elastomeric isolation bearings where the reinforcing elements, normally steel plates, are replaced by a fiber reinforcement. The fiber in the fiber-reinforced isolator, in contrast to the steel in the conventional isolator (which is assumed to be rigid both in extension and flexure), is assumed to be flexible in extension, but completely without flexure rigidity. This leads to an extension of the theoretical analysis on which the design of steel-reinforced isolators is which accommodates the stretching of the fiber-reinforcement. Several examples of isolators in the form of long strips were tested at the Earthquake Engineering Research Center Laboratory. The tested isolators had significantly large shape factors, large enough that for conventional isolators the effects of material compressibility would need to be included. The theoretical analysis is extended to include compressibility and the competing influences of reinforcement flexibility and compressibility are studied. The theoretical analysis suggests and the test results confirm that it is possible to produce a fiber-reinforced strip isolator that matches the behavior of a steel-reinforced isolator. The fiber-reinforced isolator is significantly lighter and can be made by a much less labor-intensive manufacturing process. The advantage of the strip isolator is that it can be easily used in buildings with masonry walls. The intention of this research is to provide a low-cost lightweight isolation system for housing and public buildings in developing countries.

Abstract:

This paper deals with structural damage identification at vibration isolators with elastomeric-based composite, through continuous or periodical evaluation of behavioral changes of the dynamic characteristics. It has supposed only structural damages of passive isolators, appearing inside the elastomeric core. Theoretical approaches has been provided, computer simulation scenarios regarding some potential critical cases has been developed, and experimental tests has been performed, in order to evaluate main correlation between the levels of structural integrity and the operational performance respectively. Partial results indicate an acceptable sensitivity of this dynamic method with damage detection, and establish next goal of the research in evaluation of the failure imminence and accurately localizing techniques.

Abstract:

Elastomeric bearings used as seismic isolators are susceptible to a buckling type of instability similar to that of structural columns. The buckling load and buckling behaviour can be determined from an elastic analysis of the isolator modelled as a continuous composite column with bending and shear flexibility; this analysis cannot be used, however, to assess the post-buckling behaviour or the stability of the isolator at large horizontal displacements. By using a two-spring rigid link model that considers large angles without using linear approximations, it is possible to predict the post-buckling behaviour of an isolator. Using the simple closed form expression, this paper will model three aspects of post-buckled isolator behaviour: the dependence of horizontal stiffness on vertical load, the stability at large horizontal displacements, and the increase of horizontal displacement with respect to axial load and vertical displacement.

Abstract:

A comparative study is carried out on the performance of various elastomeric and frictional base isolation (BI) systems in the vibration mitigation of structures subjected to underground blast induced ground motion (BIGM). The parametric sensitivities of the base isolated structures to variations in the design parameters of the isolators are examined for different intensities of blast input. Results indicate that substantial reductions in both the acceleration and displacement responses of the structure can be achieved by the different base isolators. Generally, the Electricite de France (EDF) base isolator produces higher peak response reductions. However, peak bearing displacements are also largest here. The pure friction (P-F), resilient-friction base isolator (R-FBI) and friction pendulum (FP) systems produce lower values of response reductions but peak bearing displacements as well as residual displacements of isolators are also low. The New Zealand (N-Z) system provides good response reductions with a low to moderate value of peak bearing displacement. The present study indicates how a proper selection of the type of BI system with suitable design parameters can mitigate structural vibration due to different intensities of BIGM and restrict the unwanted characteristics of large isolator displacement and its permanent deformation.

Abstract:

There has been many researches in order to further improve the Base Isolation system by trying various combinations and alternative materials. In that fiber reinforced isometric isolators are emerged as a viable solution, because for the low cost and effective response to seismic waves as compared to the conventional isolators. Studies further shows that it provides high vertical stiffness and low horizontal stiffness, also having effective damping over the conventional one. Developing countries who doesn’t have proper seismic protection solutions have found this convenient as they are comparatively less in cost and doesn’t require complex installation. Studies also shows Un-bonded FREI has lower horizontal stiffness and considerably lower stress demand on rubber material as compared to the B-FREI and hence significantly higher seismic isolation efficiency.

Abstract:

The paper presents the result of experimental research of the viscoelastic behavior of the antiseismic elastomeric isolators on stand, in laboratory, where the excitation is given only through harmonic instantaneous displacements. Based on the dynamic response under the form of the elastic and dissipation forces, in the time domain, the hysteresis loops and the stiffness, damping and durability to imposed repeated cycles parameters are determined. In this case, the order I dynamic system is free of added mass which makes the evaluation of its own damping to be estimated as equivalent damping with that of a complete system of 2ndorder with viscous damping.Using elastomeric isolators on site, for a base isolation project, either building or viaduct, imposes corrections of the experimental laboratory values considering the real conditions, function of the dynamic inertial excitation (earthquake, wind gusts, etc.) and of the response in instantaneous displacements.

Full text

Abstract:

Unbonded fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators (FREIs) were initially proposed as a potential low-cost alternative to conventional steel-reinforced elastomeric isolators (SREIs). FREIs are similar to SREIs but comparatively lightweight as the steel components from SREIs have been replaced with polymer fibers in FREIs. Subsequent experimental investigations identified that unbonded FREIs have desirable characteristics for seismic isolation due to the unbonded application and fiber reinforcement. The unbonded application removes mechanical fasteners, relying on friction to transfer horizontal loads, further reducing the cost. However, the unbonded application also introduces limitations, being susceptible to slip in certain loading conditions and being incapable of resisting tensile forces. In this paper, the concept of partially bonded FREIs (PB-FREIs), a proposed solution to these limitations, is further investigated experimentally with nominal vertical tensile loads. It is shown that PB-FREIs can achieve similar properties to an unbonded FREI with a vertical compressive load.

Abstract:

The concept of fibre-reinforced plate elastomeric isolator (FRPEI) is introduced firstly in this paper. Three FRPEI specimens have been constructed to evaluate the mechanical performance of the isolators by performing vertical and horizontal tests. The research focuses on the compression stiffness, the shear stiffness, the hysteretic characteristic and the vertical bearing capacity of the isolators. The experimental results show that the mechanical performance of FRPEIs can meet the requirements of bridge rubber bearings and the energy dissipation capacity is better than that of general laminated rubber bearings. Therefore, it is feasible to use FRPEIs in seismic isolation of short span bridges in low seismic regions. Theoretical and finite element methods have also been employed and the deformation assumptions applied in the theoretical method are also verified by FEM. By comparing the differences of the results of different methods, the effectivenesses of the theoretical and finite element methods are evaluated and some considerations on isolator design are proposed.

Abstract:

Conventional passive elastomenc mounts have been used as noise and vibration isolators in the automotive and aircraft industries for many years. For even better noise and vibration isolation, passive fluid mounts have been replacing elastomeric mounts in both the automotive and aerospace industries during the past few years. With more increase in the popularity of fluid mounts, it is important to characterize the dynamics of the fluid mounts more accurately. Many papers have been published on the modeling of these devices, but mostly on single pumper fluid mounts. In this paper, we focus on double pumper fluid mounts. The intent of this paper is to develop a very detailed model of a double pumper fluid mount including all dampings.

Abstract:

In this paper, some factors effect on the maximum stress of inner rubber of some elastomer isolators with big diameter of 1500mm are analyzed by FEA. These factors include size of hole, ratio of , shear modulus of inner rubber , the first shape factor , thickness of cover rubber. The isolators include those used in building or bridge, loading condition is single compress . Research results show that size of hole, ratio of and have a little effect on the maximum stress of inner rubber, but shear modulus of inner rubber, and thickness of cover rubber hardly effect.

Abstract:

Hybrid propulsion technologies, including hybrid electric and hydraulic hybrid, equip vehicles with nonconventional power sources (in addition to the internal combustion engine) to provide higher fuel efficiency. However, these technologies tend to lead to higher levels of noise, vibration, and harshness in the vehicles, mainly due to the switching between the multiple power sources involved. In addition, the shocks and vibrations associated with the power sources switching may occur over a wide range of frequencies. It has been proven that passive vibration isolators (e.g., elastomeric and hydraulic mounts) are unable to mitigate or totally isolate such shocks and vibrations. Active mounts, while effective, are more complex, require significant power to operate, and can lead to system instabilities. Semiactive vibration isolators have been shown to be as effective as active mounts while being less complex and requiring less power to operate. This paper presents a review of novel semiactive shock and vibration isolators developed using magnetorheological and electrorheological fluids. These fluids change their yield stress in response to an externally applied magnetic and electric field, respectively. As a result, these fluids allow one to transform a passive hydraulic vibration isolator into a semiactive device.
