Free vibration analysis of a cracked simply supported bridge considering bridge-vehicle interaction

This paper presents an analytical approach to investigate the free vibration of simply supported bridge with cracks under arbitrary number of vehicles. Calculation methods for natural frequencies and mode shapes are proposed based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, transfer matrix method and numerical...
