Abstract
The deflection, bending moment, shear force and acceleration-time histories of a two-span beam subjected to moving sprung vehicles are presented. The vehicle model is a 2DOF system with a constant velocity. The two-span beam with a rough surface is used as structure model. The beam is defined in modal domain by natural frequencies, mode shapes and modal damping values. The rough surface is modeled by filtered white noise. The equations of motion for the coupled vehicle-structure system are formulated, for non-dimensionalized variables in the system equation. The first-order linear stochastic differential equations are solved, and the effects of the span passage rate and other important parameters are studied.
