Abstract

Displacement amplitudes of forced vibration in SIN girders with semirigid joint depend on the stiffness of the girder and the rotational stiffness of joints. Rotational stiffness has a decisive effect on the overall integrated stiffness of the girder. In addition, damping caused by semirigid joints produces differences in the frequency and amplitude of vibration. Therefore, an analysis of oscillatory motion in double-slope beams with corrugated web with semirigid joints in the mid-span was conducted. On the basis of dynamic experimental testing of three simply supported double-slope beams with corrugated web, rotational stiffness was determined for six joints. Using the theoretical models, namely the Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic material and the standard one, differences in the displacement amplitude behaviour, damping and forces were shown. The investigations concerned girders with corrugated web for variable rotational stiffness of the joints under the action of the assumed excitation force.
