Non-linearity in high-damping natural rubber bearings for seismic isolation /

High damping natural rubber earthquake bearings, an increasingly popular base isolation option are discussed. The implications of various types of nonlinearity occurring in such bearings are examined. Particular reference is made to filler-induced small-strain stiffening in vulcanizates of the type...
