Abstrakt: This paper deals with the effect of the prestress load on the free and forced dynamic behavior and vertical vibration of the prestressed beams. The analysis applies both the analytical frequency equation and the finite element method (FEM) using ABAQUS software to predict the fundamental natural frequency (FNF) of the simply supported unbonded prestressed beams. The energy method has been employed to derive the effective prestressing load to determine the eccentricity effect. In regard to the forced response of the prestressed beam, a moving point load with a constant value and various velocities and excitation frequencies is applied. Extensive parametric studies are carried out taking into account different factors including prestress load, eccentricity, concrete ratio, span-to-depth ratio, velocity, and frequency of the moving load. The comparison of the FNFs obtained by the formula with those obtained from FEM models indicates that the results are in a good agreement. This convergence demonstrates that the proposed formulation can predict the FNF of the eccentrically prestressed beams with high reliability. The time-histories curves for midspan displacement of the unbonded prestressed beams and the dynamic magnification factors are also evaluated. The results illustrate that the aforementioned factors have an indispensable contribution to the beam dynamic behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
