Study of the modification factor of concrete bridges with Elastomeric Rubber Bearing (ERB) and Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) [PDF]
By examining the results of the analysis of the modification factor of the bridge with LRB isolators for x and y, respectively 2.32 and 3.95 and modification factor of bridge isolators ERB to x and y, respectively 2.57 and 4.25 was calculated.

Shear Characteristic Changes in Blended Rubber of Elastomeric Bearings due to Aging [PDF]
Rubber bearings are widely used for seismic retrofit of bridges because they reduce the seismic force by making the vibration period of the bridge longer and distributing the seismic force to all the piers. However, they have the disadvantage of being easily aged compared to steel bearings as well as having variations in the shear stiffness.

Variability of Dynamic Properties of Rubber Compounds for Elastomeric Bearings
The λ-factors for stiffness and damping of rubber bearings should be experimentally assessed during the qualification process or deduced from tests performed on material specimens. Moreover, the λ-factors suggested in the informative annexes of EN 15129 and of EC8-part 2 can be also used as reference values.

DESIGN AND PRODUCTION OF LEAD RUBBER BEARINGS FOR EARTHQUAKE ABSORBERS [PDF]
Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) is a passive type of base isolation that can be used as a damper for earthquake vibrations on bridges and buildings. The components that make up the LRB are several layers of rubber laminated to steel plates to increase vertical

Self-Sensing Rubber for Bridge Bearing Monitoring
Elastomeric bearings are widely used in bridges to support the superstructure, to transfer loads to substructures, and to accommodate movements induced by, for example, temperature changes.
