Abstract
The dynamic response of structures subjected to moving load is a subject of great importance from a practical point of view. In this work, the in-plane dynamic response of a cracked isotropic circular curved beam subjected to moving loads is investigated using the finite element method. The curved beam is modeled using curved beam elements, which is developed based on the Timoshenko beam theory. Furthermore, a cracked curved beam element is developed to incorporate the presence of cracks in the structure. The effect of moving load speed, depth, and the location of the crack on the dynamic response of the beam is investigated. The outcome of the work can be useful in the study of real-life moving load problems like bridges and railways and also in the field of condition monitoring using moving loads.
