Vibrations of a Girder on Rigid Supports of Finite Mass Interacting With Soil under Seismic Loads

Transverse vibrations of a single-span girder bridge are considered in the article; the pile part of the bridge interacts with the surrounding soil under seismic action. We assume that the strain of the structure does not go beyond the elastic limit, and the vibrations are linear. The bridge supports are assumed to be immersed in soil and interact with a rigid body under the impact of unsteady dynamic influences. We consider the case when the right and left supports have equal masses and interact with the surrounding soil. Here the symmetry condition is applied, so it is sufficient to consider the equation for the right half of the girder. The problems are solved by the analytical Fourier method under given boundary conditions. The results obtained are analyzed and presented in the form of the distribution of displacements and stresses over the time and length of the bridge structures.
