A simply supported uniform Euler-Bernoulli beam carrying a crane (carriage and payload) is modelled. The crane carriage is modelled as a particle as is the payload which is assumed to be suspended from the carriage on a massless rigid rod and is restricted to motion in the plane defined by the beam

β¦ Synopsis
An overhead crane, modelled as a point mass carriage traversing a simply supported Euler}Bernoulli beam that is allowed to travel in a direction perpendicular to its span, is considered. The point mass payload is attached to the carriage via a massless beam and is allowed both in-plane and out-of-plane motion. The Rayleigh}Ritz solution technique is used to obtain the equations of motion of the system. The in#uence of traverse and travel motions, pendulum length and payload mass on the pendulum motion are investigated.

For an electrical railway overhead wire system there are two main factors which crucially affect the quality of current collection. One is the spatial stiffness variation of the overhead wire along each span and the other is the flexural wave motion in the wire. In this paper a periodically excited
