DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF PLATES ON ELASTIC FOUNDATIONS DUE TO THE MOVING LOADS

This paper discusses the dynarmic response of thin plates on the elastic foundations dueto the moving loads by means of the variational calculus. In the text we take the mass ofmoving loads into account. treat a series of questions such as the forced oscillatons,theinfluence surfaces of the flexions and the influence surfaces of the inner forces,resonanceconditions and critical speed and so forth.
