Abstract. When designing buildings and structures for operation in seismically hazardous areas, constructions of increased bearing capacity are traditionally used. At present, in Ukraine and abroad, “active seismic protection systems” have been used, which reduce seismic loads on constructions. Most of the systems belong to the means of kinematic vibration isolation. Protection against vibration seismic loading is provided by devices located between the construction (building) and the supporting construction. Vibration isolators of various designs, dampers, dynamic dampers, etc. are used as such devices. As vibration isolators, constructions using elastomeric materials, mainly rubber, are most widely used. The use of elastomeric blocks in the systems of vibration and seismic protection of buildings and structures is characterized by high vertical rigidity, low shear rigidity, high energy dissipation, they have high reliability and the absence of sudden failure. Despite significant advances in the design of elastomeric parts, the simplicity of shapes and extensive experience in their application, constructions with desired physical and mechanical characteristics have not yet been created. In this regard, fairly simple and accurate calculation methods that can be used at the design stage are of great importance. The calculation of thin-layer rubber-metal vibration isolators under static compression is considered. The calculation was performed using the Ritz method for an axisymmetric problem with the assumption that axial displacements do not depend on the radius of an individual element, but are only a function of the axial coordinate. Experimental verification of the results obtained was carried out using rubber-metal vibration isolators with a diameter of 200 mm and a rubber layer height of 5 mm, 10 mm and 20 mm, which were stacked with a rubber mass of 100 mm thick. Comparison of the calculated and experimental data shows that up to the value of the element radius to height ratio equal to ten, the stiffness values practically coincide. For thinner elements, the introduction of an appropriate coefficient is required.
Keywords: rubber-metal vibration isolator, thin-layer element, physically nonlinear medium, compressibility, elastic potential.
