The Effect of Reinforcing Plate on the Stiffness of Elastomeric Bearing for FPSO
The marine elastomeric bearing consists of an elastomer and several reinforcing inserted plates. Unlike land bearings that are to absorb high-frequency vibration during earthquakes, offshore elastomeric bearings are to support topside-module weight while efficiently absorbing wave-induced hull motio...
