Abstract.

In the work, the key problems of the system of vibroseismic protection of buildings and structures with the help of layered elastomeric blocks that are characterized by high vertical stiffness, low shear rigidity, high energy dissipation, ability to center the vertical load, high reliability and no risk of sudden failure are considered.

Calculation of elastomeric blocks under static compression is considered. Components of the stress-strain state of thin-layer elements are studied. Calculation of thin rubber layer compression under the action of vertically applied force was carried out. For the case of assumed simplifying hypotheses, dependence between the rate of rubber layer settling and different ratios of radius and thickness was obtained by analytical method. The problem was solved by elastic deformation of the rubber layer. In numerical calculation, weak compressibility of rubber was simulated by moment force of the finite element for weakly compressible materials, which assumed triple approximation of displacement fields, deformation components and volume change functions. The numerical solution was obtained by finite element method for different ratios of radius and thickness in case of geometrically nonlinear elastic and viscoelastic deformation.

Geometric nonlinearity was described with the help of nonlinear deformation tensor. In order to simulate viscoelastic properties of rubber, the Boltzmann-Volterra hereditary theory with the Yu.N. Rabotnov’s relaxation kernel was used. Nonlinear boundary-value problems were solved by the modified Newton-Kantorovich method. Influence of geometric nonlinearity and viscoelastic properties of rubber on the rate of the rubber layer settling was studied.

Results of static and dynamic tests of parametric series of elastomeric blocks for protecting residential buildings against vibrations are presented. Design of a pile with vibration-proof rubber supports is considered.

The designed and tested structures were used for protecting apartment houses in Kiev (10 sectional 10-storey apartment house in the Kikvidze street and three 27-storey houses in Obolonsky avenue) and three houses in Lviv against vibration caused by motor vehicles and underground trains.

Vibroseismic insulation with the help of elastomeric blocks ensures less than 1 Hz of natural oscillation frequency of the building in the horizontal plane, hence, meeting requirements of national standards that are harmonized with corresponding parts of Eurocode 8 for designing of seismic insulation systems for buildings.

Keywords:

vibroseismic protection of buildings and structures, vibration isolator, static and dynamic studies, calculation of vibration isolators.
