Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive review of moving force identification on simply supported bridges. When a vehicle moves on a bridge deck, there is a dynamic interaction force between the vehicle and the bridge deck. This dynamic interaction force is crucial for the design and condition assessment of bridges. However, this interaction force cannot be directly measured. Therefore, the indirect measurement method based on the bridge response, namely, the moving force identification method, has become an important issue in evaluating bridge condition. This paper provides a comprehensive review of current research and development activities in bridge moving force identification. First, the development and application of moving force identification are introduced. Next, the theoretical methods of bridge moving force identification are presented. Then, the robustness and accuracy of moving time-varying force identification methods are numerically simulated and compared. Finally, the characteristics of these methods are summarized, which provides a basis for selecting the suitable identification methods under different conditions and prospects of the further development of moving force identification.
