The scope of this study is the comparison between experimental results of tests performed on a base isolated building using helical wire rope isolators (WRs), and results of Nonlinear Response History Analyses (NRHAs) performed using SAP 2000, a commercial software for structural analysis. In the first stage of this research, WRs have been tested under shear deformation beyond their linear range of deformation, and analytical models have been derived to describe the nonlinear response of the bearings under different directions of loading. On the following stage, shaking table tests have been carried out on a 1/3 scale steel model isolated at the base by means of curved surface sliders (CSS) and WRs. The response of the structure under ground motion excitation has been compared to that obtained using numerical analyses in SAP 2000. The feasibility of modelling the nonlinear behavior of the tested isolation layer using multilinear link elements embedded in SAP 2000 is discussed in this paper, together with the advantages of using WRs as supplemental devices for CSSs base isolated structures.

Antenna equipment is transported being assembled to moving equipment and often subjected to vibration and shock excitation during transportation. In these circumstances, structural safety of antenna equipment must be secured. Wire rope isolators are assembled between moving equipment and antenna equipment to reduce the level of vibration and shock. In this paper, a isolator that are suitable to the system is selected and dynamic characteristics analysis of driving on antenna equipment is conducted using real system and the result is compared with response analysis. Also modal test of array-antenna pack-assembly is conducted and structural safety of that is secured by reinforcing its structure.

Passive-type control devices such as resilient mounts and wire rope isolators are generally used for protecting the shipboard equipment from shock loading and for suppressing the mechanical vibration of the equipment in naval ships. To improve the performance of the control device, a new hybrid mount is under development in this study. This mount consists of a passive-type rubber element and an active-type piezo-stack element. It can be expected that the mount has enhanced performance of about 20 dB or more with respect to transmissibility through a series of performance tests of prototype mount.
