Spherical sliding isolation bearings with adaptive behavior Theory.

The principles of operation and force displacement relationships of three novel spherical sliding isolation bearings are developed in this paper. These bearings are completely passive devices, yet exhibit adaptive stiffness and adaptive damping. That is, the stiffness and damping change to predictab...
