Analytic solutions are derived for a horizontal curved beam subjected to vertical and horizontal moving loads. The horizontal moving loads may be regarded as the centrifugal forces generated by vehicles moving along a curved path, which were rarely studied by previous researchers. Both a single movi

β¦ Synopsis
This paper deals with the linear dynamic response of a simply supported elastic singlespan beam subjected to a moving load of constant magnitude and variable velocity. This analysis focuses attention on the effect of the acceleration or deceleration on the behaviour of the beam under a single (one-axle) load, or a real vehicle model (two-axle load), while the influence of the damping of the beam is taken into account for this last model. A variety of numerical results allows us to draw important conclusions for structural design purposes.

The problem of transverse vibrations of homogeneous isotropic rotating beams due to the passage of dierent types of loads is of considerable practical interest. Using analytical and numerical methods, this paper investigates the stochastic dynamic response of a rotating simply supported beam subject
The transverse vibration of a beam with intermediate point constraints subject to a moving load is analyzed by using the Euler beam theory and the assumed mode method. The point constraints in the form of supports are assumed to be linear springs of large stiffness. Results of numerical simulations
An iterative modal analysis approach is developed to determine the e!ect of transverse cracks on the dynamic behavior of simply supported undamped Bernoulli}Euler beams subject to a moving mass. The presence of crack results in higher de#ections and alters the beam response patterns. In particular,
