Moving random loads

1972
So far in this book we have assumed that the load was specified in advance, i.e. that it had the form, for example, of a known function of time or of a quantity governed by a known functional dependence (so-called deterministic processes). Sometimes, however, such an assumption is far from reality; under certain circumstances actual loads, no less than

Load distribution in moving furniture

American Journal of Physics, 1996
Static equilibrium conditions are applied to the case of moving a piece of furniture. Assume that two people are carrying a piece of furniture down a hill with a uniform speed. The load distribution on both people is found to be a function of the slope of the hill, the difference in the heights of the two people, the length of the furniture, and, more ...

Pavement Response to Moving Loads

Road Materials and Pavement Design, 2001
ABSTRACT A multi-layer, four dimensional spatial and temporal, physical model for the dynamic responses of a road structure is established in an analytic framework by integrating together vehicle dynamics, road profiles characteristics, frictional characteristics of vehicle-road contacts, and pavement visco-elastic properties.

Membrane deformation by a moving load

Journal of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 1997
Small steady deformations (displacements) of the elements of a homogeneous membrane caused by a [force] load moving uniformly along one of the axes with velocity exceeding the velocity of propagation of elastic waves in the membrane are investigated.

Statistical moving load identification including uncertainty

Probabilistic Engineering Mechanics, 2012
Abstract Most existing approaches of moving load identification treat the structure–load interaction problem as deterministic in which the identified results do not have any statistical prediction on their quality. In fact, uncertainties exist in both the interaction forces and structural responses, and the existence of the uncertainty erodes the ...

Moving Loads and Car Disc Brake Squeal

Noise & Vibration Worldwide, 2003
Disc brake vibration and squeal is a source of irritation and distraction. A squealing brake gives customers the impression of underlying quality problems of the vehicle. The warranty cost due to disc brake noise is very high and has led to much research and investment in tackling disc brake vibration and noise.

Random Vibration of Beam under Moving Loads

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1994
Structural response to moving loads is an important area of study for highway bridge designers. In this paper, a new approach for the evaluation of nonstationary stochastic response of a bridge under moving loads of vehicular traffic is presented. The random nature of the force arrivals at bridge beams constitute a Poisson process of events.

The Finite Beam With a Moving Load

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1967
A “method of images” series solution is obtained which converges rapidly for a simply supported, long beam with a high-velocity, moving concentrated load. Each term of the series is a Fourier integral solution for an appropriate semi-infinite beam problem.

Beams and shells with moving loads

International Journal of Solids and Structures, 1971
Abstract The transient response of the Euler-Bernoulli beam and the Timoshenko beam on elastic foundations due to moving loads is reviewed, using, however, a considerably simpler vector formulation with a Laplace rather than Fourier transformation.
