| Research Abstract |
The vibration method is usually utilized on the measurement of cable tension during construction of cable bridges such as Nielsen bridges or cable stayed bridges. Practical formula for the vibration method previously proposed by authors is often used where bending rigidity is taken into account. The flexual rigidity of cable is assumed to be clear in this formula. Its values, however, change for various cable types and cable tension, and estimation of the values are difficult. In this paper, extended kalman filter is applied to the simultaneous identification of flexual rigidity and axial forces of cables and truss members. The multi-degree of freedom model reduced to some of lower order natural frequency mode is used as the mathematical model of axial members on the extended kalman filter in order to apply impact hammer because it is convenient as excitation method for field tests.
First, experiments are done using small steel bars and wires as cable and truss specimens and the effects of the method are confirmed. Next, steel bars in which we can get the exact flexural rigidity and cables are tested, and the effects of the method are examined. It is confirmed that tension and compression forces and bending rigidities of cables and truss members are estimated by the proposed method.
