Analysis of an Isolation System with Vertical Spring-viscous Dampers in Horizontal and Vertical Ground Motion

This paper proposes a new vibration isolation mounting system, with spherical balls and vertical spring dampers, that provides seismic protection from horizontal and vertical ground excitation. To characterize the system, nonlinear governing equations are derived by considering the kinematics and in...
