A coupled-channels optical model with a coupling scheme based on nuclear wave functions of the soft-rotator model was applied to analyze experimental nucleon-nucleus interaction data for even-even nuclides with mass number A=24-122. We found that all the available data (total cross sections, angular distributions of elastically and inelastically scattered nucleons, and reaction cross sections) for these nuclides can be described to a good accuracy using an optical potential having smooth dependencies of potential values, radii, and diffuseness on the mass number. The individual properties of the target nuclides are accounted for by individuality of the nuclear Hamiltonian parameters, adjusted to reproduce the low-lying collective level structure, Fermi energies, and deformation parameters.
