An Experimental Study of the Seismic Isolation Systems (or Equipment Isolation : Evaluation of Damping Effect
기기면진을 위한 면진장치의 거동분석실험 (II) : 감쇠특성 분석
Abstract
This paper presents the results of experimental studies on the equipment isolation effect in the nuclear containment. for this Purpose, shaking table tests were performed. The natural rubber bearing (NRB) and high damping rubber bearing (HDRB) were selected for the isolation. Peak ground acceleration, damping characteristics of isolation system and frequency contents of selected earthquake motions were considered. finally, it is presented that the NRB and HDRB systems are effective for the small equipment isolation and the damping of isolation systems can be affected to the seismic isolation effect.
