Abstract
We consider an infinite dimensional manifold M modelled on a Banach space E and we construct smooth fiber bundle structures on the tangent bundle of order two T^2M, which consists of all smooth curves of M that agree up to their acceleration, as well as on the corresponding second order frame bundle L^2M. These bundles prove to be associated with respect to the identity representation of the general linear group GL(E}) that serves as the structure group of both of them. Moreover, a bijective correspondence between linear connections on T^2M and connection forms of L^2M is revealed.
