Experimental Approach for the Failure Mode of Small Laminated Rubber Bearings for Seismic Isolation of Nuclear Components

Response characteristics of small-sized laminated rubber bearings (LRBs) with partial damage and total failure were investigated. For nuclear component seismic isolation, ultimate response characteristics are mainly reviewed using a beyond design basis earthquake (BDBE). Static tests, 3D shaking tab...
