Amplification factor analysis of a simply supported beam under moving loads

An analytical solution for vertical vibrations of a simply supported bridge under the action of moving loads is derived and validated. The effect of bridge frequency, span length and vehicle length on the amplification factor of mid-span displacement is discussed using theoretical formulas and numer...
