Development of an Adjustable Frequency Device for a Test Vehicle Based on Curved Beam Theory

In this article, an adjustable frequency device based on curved beam theory is designed to control vertical stiffness of an instrumented vehicle that it can detect dynamic data when moving on a test beam for frequency measurement. The adjustable frequency device consists of a set of two-layer cantilever semi-circular thin-beams to support a lumped mass for vibrations, in which a rotatable U-frame is used to change its subtended angle for adjustment of the supporting stiffness and corresponding vertical frequencies of the vehicle. Based on curved beam theory, an analytical frequency equation of the single-degree-of-freedom test vehicle was derived and applied to mobile frequency measurement of a simple beam. To determine the sectional rigidity of the semi-circular thin-beams, both theoretical and experimental studies were be carried out in the ITAM laboratory of the Academy of Science in Czech. The analytical and experimental results indicated that the present semi-circular beam model with guided ends is applicable to prediction of natural frequencies of the test vehicle considering different supporting stiffness
