In this paper is presenting the shape design and elastomer bearings, which functioned as a joint connecting sub-structures and upper-structures with a railway bridge bearing systems. The elastomeric spherical bearing shaped and composed of alternated 17-layered metal shim plates and 18-layered elastomer plates, respectively. The elastomeric spherical bearing a high compressive load for perpendicular axis to layered plates and flexible motions are provided coincidently for other axes. The three types of elastomers, which were developed due to a designed shear modules were applied. Nonlinear analysis based on the material properties of designed bearing were accomplished. Therefore, the Nonlinear Analysis results were compared with the calculation results and the optimized shapes were designed.

The aim of this paper is to develop software for designing of steel reinforced elastomeric isolator (SREI) according to American Association for State Highway and Transportation Officials Load and Resistance Factor Design (AASHTO LRFD) Specifications. SREI is used for almost all bridge types and special structures. SREI-structures interface defines support boundary conditions and may affect the seismic performance of bridges. Seismic performance of the bridge is also affected by geometrical and materials properties of SREI. The selection of SREI is complicated process includes satisfying all the design constraints arising from code provisions and maximizing performance at the lowest possible cost. In this paper, design stage of SREI is described up to AASHTO LRFD 2012. Up to AASHTO LRFD 2012 analysis and design program of SREI performed different geometrical and material properties are created with C# object-oriented language. SREI-CAD, name of the created software, allows an accurate design for economical estimation of a SREI in a short time. To determine types of SREI effects, two different types of bearings, rectangular and circular with similar materials and dimension properties are selected as an application. Designs of these SREIs are completed with SREI-CAD. It is seen that ensuring the stability of circular elastomer bearing at the service limit state is generally complicated than rectangular bearing.

Nowadays many peoples are using helicopter in various fields, not only military use but also common people applications such as air-measurement, photography, transportation of goods and persons, saving life and fire fighting etc. And it will be expected more popular than now. Most important part of helicopter to increasing performance and to reducing noise is rotor hub-system. Hub system consists of rotor-blade and rotor-hub. We participate to develop next-generation rotor hub system with elastomeric bearing, part of rotor hub. In this paper we introduce about the role and shape of elastomeric bearing in next-generation helicopter hub system. Then we study about bearing-material requirements and measuring methods. Finally we represent some experimental results.

교량 받침장치부는 상부구조의 수직하중을 지지하여 하부구조에 전달하고, 교량의 붕괴사고를 방지하는 역할을 한다. 하지만, 포항지진에 의하여 총 12개 도로교량의 받침장치 몰탈 파손, 받침장치 파손 및 쐐기 손상이 보고되었다. 본 연구에서는 지진시 교량 받침장치부의 구조 시스템 특성을 고려하여 교각의 코핑부와 무수축몰탈을 포함한 면진받침 장치 실험체의 전단 거동특성 및 손상모드를 평가하였다. 받침장치 쐐기에 대한 영향을 확인하기 위하여 쐐기 설치 유무를 변수로 설정하였으며, 압축-전단 실험을 실시하여 면진장치의 전단 거동특성과 손상모드를 확인하였다. 또한 유한요소해석을 통하여 받침장치의 거동특성 및 각 구성요소별 손상원인을 분석하였다. 실험결과, 쐐기의 충돌 및 손상 발생 이후 급격한 하중변화가 발생하였으며, 받침장치와 무수축몰탈 경계부를 따라 균열이 발생하였다. 쐐기 유무에 따른 쐐기, 앵커 소켓 및 무수축볼탈의 응력거동을 비교함으로써 지진시 교량받침장치부의 손상원인을 규명하였다.

As a relatively new type of multi-layered rubber-based seismic isolators, fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators (FREIs) are composed of several thin rubber layers reinforced with flexible fiber sheets. Limited analytical studies in literature have pointed out that "warping" (distortion) of reinforcing sheets has significant influence on buckling behavior of FREIs. However, none of these studies, to the best knowledge of authors, has investigated their warping behavior, thoroughly. This study aims to investigate, in detail, the warping behavior of strip-shaped FREIs by deriving advanced analytical solutions without utilizing the commonly used "pressure", incompressibility, inextensibility and the "linear axial displacement variation through the thickness" assumptions. Studies show that the warping behavior of FREIs mainly depends on the (i) aspect ratio (shape factor) of the interior elastomer layers, (ii) Poisson's ratio of the elastomer and (iii) extensibility of the fiber sheets. The basic assumptions of the "pressure" method as well as the commonly used incompressibility assumption are valid only for isolators with relatively large shape factors, strictly incompressible elastomeric material and nearly inextensible fiber reinforcement.

We performed the heat aging test to predict the useful lifetime of Elastomeric Bearing Chloroprene Rubber (CR) used for supporting bridge. During the test, we measured elongation that are influenced by temperature and aging time. The failure of a test piece is defined as the point at which the elongation reaches to 75% of the initial value. This failure criterion is based on KS F 4420: 1998 (Elastomeric Bearing for bridge). Through the accelerated heat aging test, we found that the Arrhenius relationship and the Weibull lifetime distribution are appropriate as the life-temperature relationship and lifetime distribution of the CR, respectively. Using the Arrhenius -Weibull model, the parameters of the model are estimated and the lifetime of the CR at use condition is predicted.

내진 설계되지 않은 일경간-이층 철골조의 면진에 사용될 적층 고무베어링과 납-고무 베어링을 설계하여 철골조와 기초 사이에 이 면진장치들을 적용하여 지진파들에 대한 내진 성능 평가를 행하였다. 이들 면진장치들을 사용하면 철골조의 내진성능이 향상된다. 특히 적층 고무베어링의 중앙에 원통형 납을 삽입함으로써 초기강성을 증가시켜, 빈번한 사용하중 하에서 구조물에 발생하는 비교적 과도한 횡변위를 구속할 수 있으며, 강한 지진파에 대해서는 이 납이 항복함으로써 에너지 소산능력을 향상시킨다.

교량받침은 활하중, 크리프, 온도변화, 건조수축 등에 의한 상부구조의 변위를 흡수하는 역할을 수행한다. 국내 탄성받침 설계기준인 KS F 4420은 전단변형을 탄성받침 총 고무 높이의 70% 이내로 제한하고 있는데, KS F 4420에 의해 설계된 탄성받침이 요구되는 전단성능을 발휘하기 위해서는 허용 전단변형률이 전단파괴에 대하여 충분한 안전성을 보유해야 한다. 더욱이 탄성받침이 지진격리장치와 함께 내진설계에 사용될 수 있는 상황을 고려할 경우, 탄성받침은 KS F 4420의 허용전단변형률보다 높은 수준의 전단성능을 확보해야 한다. 이 논문에서는 국내 탄성받침의 전단성능을 확인하기 위하여 극한전단실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과 탄성받침은 200% 이상의 전단변형률에서 파괴가 발생하여 KSF 4420의 허용전단변형률 규정이 안전 측이라는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 하지만 일체화된 거동을 할 것이라 기대 되었던 탄성받침이 200% 전단변형률 내외에서 받침 분리현상을 보였다. 관측된 받침분리 현상은 탄성받침의 내진설계 적용성을 고려할 경우 교량 시스템에 예기치 못한 충격 또는 집중 응력을 발생 시킬 수 있기 때문에 이러한 현상이 방지될 수 있도록 관련 규정이 필요하다고 판단된다.

Railway bridge is the most problematic thing in the railway is due to noise and vibration. To solve these problems, there have been studies. However, a fundamental alternative to the noise and vibration. It has not so far not shown, and to minimize the problem is focused. As a result, developed a lot of noise reduction measures, but the vibration is not much for reduction. In this study, to support the superstructure of the bridge vibration possible for spherical elastomeric bearing is a technical review. And it applies to the railway bridge, the numerical analysis was carried out.

Experimental work undertaken to investigate the behaviour of laminated elastomeric bridge bearings under compression and a combination of compression and shear or rotation has been reported on elsewhere. However, it is difficult to determine the state of stress within the bearings in terms of the applied forces or the interaction between the steel shims and the rubber layers in the bearings. In order to supply some of the missing information about the stress-strain state within the bearings, an analytical study using the finite element method was carried out. The available experimental results were used to validate the model after which the analyses were used to provide further information about the state of stress within the bearing.
