Abstract
AbstractThis study endeavors to explore the impacts of two foundational parameters on the dynamic response of a uniform elastic beam subjected to a concentrated moving load under clamped-clamped boundary conditions. The investigation employs the generalized Fourier integral transform alongside a series representation of the Dirac-Delta function, a modified version of Struble’s asymptotic method, and integral transformation techniques in tandem with convolution theory to derive solutions to the dynamic problem. The findings are then depicted graphically. Special scenarios involving moving force and moving mass problems, both influenced by concentrated moving loads, as well as the effect of axial force, are also addressed. When exposed to a concentrated moving pressure, it was shown that the beam’s reaction amplitude reduces as axial force N, shear modulus G, and foundation modulus K decrease. In contrast to foundation modulus K, greater values of shear modulus G are needed for a more noticeable impact. Additionally, it was shown that the system touched by a moving force has a lower critical speed than the system impacted by a moving mass, suggesting that resonance happens sooner in the moving mass question than in the moving force question. As a result, it will not be possible to safely approximate the motion issue as a substitute for the mass moving challenge.
Keywords:Two parameters foundation, concentrated loads, resonance, moving force, moving mass, clamped-clamped boundary conditions.
