Implementation of a Vibration Absorbers to Euler-Bernoulli Beam and Dynamic Analysis of Moving Car

Abstract

In this study, the dynamic analysis of Euler-Bernoulli bridge beam, single-degree of freedom moving vehicle and vibration absorber is discussed according to vehicle and bridge dynamics. The equations of motion entire system representing the physical model of the system are obtained using the Lagrange function. Then the vibration equation of vehicle and bridge beam which attached vibration absorber has been solved numerically with a special program written in computer software. The effect of the basic parameters such as frequency (fi), damping (c) coefficient, mass (m), mass ratio (?) and location of the vibration absorber on the bridge are examined in detail in terms of vehicle and bridge dynamics.
