STUDY ON PRE-YIELD SHEAR STIFFNESS OF DIFFERENTIAL RESTORING FORCE MODEL FOR LEAD RUBBER BEARING

    Graphical Abstract
    • Abstract
  • The paper introduces the development of differential restoring model (Bouc-Wen model) and its application in lead rubber bearing. Based on the compression-shear tests of two different LRBs, the differential restoring force model with various pre-yield shear stiffness ranging from 5Kd to 40Kd is considered and compared with the experimental results, and some important conclusions can be drawn from the results. An isolated eight-story super-structure is used as the numerical example. Its pre-yield shear stiffness of the LRB is chosen to be 10Kd and 40Kd, meanwhile the stiffness of the bottom floor of the super-structure is 100Kd, 300Kd and 500Kd for different shear pre-yield stiffness of the LRB. Thus the effect of different pre-yield shear stiffness on the structure with various natural periods can be considered and compared. Finally, a reasonable value of the pre-yield shear stiffness of the lead rubber bearing is given for the design of isolated buildings.
