Vehicle-bridge coupling vibration of curved beam bridge under earthquake excitation

Abstract

Based on the non-inertial reference system, the vehicle model of four freedom degrees is used to establish the vehicle-bridge coupling dynamic system model of the curved beam in space. Considering the vehicle-bridge coupling vibration characteristics under the non-uniform seismic excitation at the two supports of the bridge, the three-dimension space curvilinear-vehicle coupling dynamic control equation is established based on the Hamiltonian principle. Then the coupling dynamic control equation of the vehicle and bridge is numerically analyzed by the method of separating variables.
