Experimental twelve degree of freedom rubber isolator models for use in substructuring assemblies
Experimental twelve degree of freedom rubber isolator models for use in substructuring assemblies Commercial off-the-shelf rubber isolators often come with no additional information other than the static stiffness in three translational directions. Hydraulic testing machines can be used to obtain frequency dependent dynamic stiffnesses of rubber isolators in translational degrees of freedom (DoF). Alternatively, dynamic substructuring based methods can [...]
