    Abstract

    Two factors are critical to the effectiveness of the vehicle scanning method for bridge frequencies. One is the frequency of the test vehicle itself. This can be eliminated by using the vehicle–bridge contact point response calculated from the vehicle response. The other is the surface roughness of the bridge, which can be removed by using the residual response of two connected vehicles. In this paper, it is demonstrated for the first time that both vehicle’s frequency and surface roughness can be simultaneously eliminated using the contact residue of two connected vehicles. Theoretically, a formulation is presented for both the contact response and residues. In the numerical study, the contact response is demonstrated to outperform the vehicle response as more bridge frequencies can be identified, while the contact residue is verified to work well for various surface roughnesses, vehicle spacings, and bridge damping ratios. For damped bridges with rough surfaces, the contact residue enables us to extract the first three bridge frequencies.
