Graphene-Rubber Layered Functional Composites for Seismic
Isolation
MariaRosariaMarsicoandJuliánMauricioLondoñoMonsalve
Abstract Elastomeric isolators are special devices used for seismic isolation of structures. Typically, they are made of
alternate layers of steeland rubber and they positioned between the structure and itsfoundations todecouple them. Novel
Graphene-Reinforced Elastomeric Isolators, GREI, are proposed in this study to overcome the heavy weight and long
manufacturingprocessofelastomericisolatorscurrentlyused.
This manuscript presents an experimental dynamic analysis on rubber pads reinforced with a few layer graphene.
Experimental modal analysis is performed on a mass-spring-damper system and the dynamics of the system and the
mechanicalpropertiesessentialtocharacterizethespecimensareextractedfromthemeasuredfrequencyresponsefunction.

TheconceptofinterposingElastomericisolators(EIs)betweenastructureanditsfoundationstodecouplethemisknownas
baseisolation;itisacceptedbyallmajorinternationalseismiccodesandenablesstructurestosurvivepotentiallydevastating
seismic events. Current technologies for base isolation use steel-reinforced elastomeric isolators (SREI) which are made
of alternate layers of steel and rubber and are used mainly in strategic and public buildings due to high cost of designing,
production and installation. The primary weight in a SREI is due to the reinforcing steel plates which are used to provide
the rubber-steel composite with high vertical stiffness, and to the end steel plates at the bottom and top which are used to
securethedevicetothestructureandthefoundations.Studieshavebeenconductedtoinvestigatethedynamicbehaviourof
isolators reinforced with fibre sheets e.g. glass or carbon fibres (Fibre-Reinforced Elastomeric Isolators, FREI), which are
