About this document
Shear Modulus of Elastomeric Bearings by jndlsmt is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document discusses estimating the shear modulus of elastomeric bridge bearings using operational modal analysis. It summarizes that: 1) The shear modulus of elastomeric bridge bearings was estimated by extracting dynamic characteristics from operational modal analysis data and comparing to finite element models. 2) Testing of two bearings - an old bearing from a 35+ year old bridge and a new replacement bearing - estimated shear moduli of 0.6-0.8 MPa for the old and 1.3-1.8 MPa for the new. 3) Mo
