Abstract
In this study, new rubber bearing device with fiber elements was developed. This device has high damping performance. We conducted tensile test of fiber elements, dynamic loading test of rubber bearing devices and non-linear dynamic analysis of 1-degree-of-freedom system modeled rubber bearing device with fiber elements. It was found that new rubber bearing device with fiber elements was able to reduce response displacement and dynamic load of rubber bearing device.
