Abstract
The method to predict vibration behavior of structure filled with granular materials is essential for efficient design of structure filled with granular materials. In the previous report, the method for experimentally evaluating damping effect and modeling as equivalent non-linear spring force and equivalent non-linear viscous damping force was proposed. In this report, the method is applied to continuous structure with the vibration distribution. The continuous structure is simply supported beam filled with granular materials. The validity is confirmed by comparison with experimental result.
