Abstract The present work describes a significant influence of a slight Coulomb damping on buckling of the simply supported beam subjected to an axial compressive force. Coulomb damping in the supporting points produces equilibrium regions around the well-known stable and unstable steady states under the pitchfork bifurcation which are analytically obtained in no consideration of the effect of Coulomb damping. After the transient response, the beam can stop any states in the equilibrium region, which becomes wider in the vicinity of the bifurcation point, depending on the initial condition. Also, the imperfection due to gravity is considered and it is theoretically shown that the equilibrium region is connected in the case when the imperfection due to gravity is relatively small comparing with the effect of the Coulomb damping, while the steady states under the pitchfork bifurcation in no consideration of the effect of Coulomb damping are necessarily disconnected by imperfection. Experimental results confirm the theoretically predicted effect of Coulomb damping in the supporting point on the buckling behavior of the beam.

<p>At present, Chinese high-speed railway operating mileage has exceeded 20 thousand km, and the proportion of the bridge is nearly 50%. Moreover, high-speed railway design speed is constantly improving. Therefore, controlling the deformation of the bridge structure strictly is particularly important to train speed-up as well as to ensure the smoothness of the line. This paper, based on the field test, shows the vertical and transverse absolute displacements of bridge structure by field collection. What’s more, resonance speed and dynamic coefficient of bridge were studied. The results show that: the horizontal and vertical stiffness of the bridge can meet the requirements of <b>Chinese “high-speed railway design specification” (HRDS)</b>, and the structure design can be optimized. However, the dynamic coefficient may be greater than the specification suggested value. And the simply supported beam with CRTSII ballastless track has second-order vertical resonance velocity 306km/h and third-order transverse resonance velocity 312km/h by test results, which are all coincide with the theoretical resonance velocity.</p>

The large deflections of a simply supported beam, one end of which is free to move horizontally while the other is subjected to a moment, are investigated by means of inextensional elastica theory. The linear theory is found to be valid for relatively large angles of rotation of the loaded end. The beam becomes transitionally unstable, however, at a critical value of the bending moment parameter MIL/EI equal to 5.284. If the angle of rotation is controlled, the beam is found to become unstable when the rotation is 222.65 deg.

The related researches show that , the sunshine temperature field can cause the changes of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam. In order to recover the influence law of the temperature field on the natural frequencies, the calculation method of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam bridge is formed. First, according to the principles of stress equivalence, transform the sunshine temperature field to the partiality axis forces. Based on the Bernoulli model, the calculation method of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported beam under the partiality axis forces at both ends is formed. At last, take one simply-supported T beam as the object of numerical modeling and verify the validity and the reliability of this method.

In the present paper, the geometrically nonlinear behavior of piezoelastic thin plates is studied. First, the governing equations for the electromechanically coupled problem are derived based on the von Karman–Tsien kinematic assumption. Here, the Berger approximation is extended to the coupled piezoelastic problem. The general equations are then reduced to a single nonlinear partial differential equation for the special case of simply supported polygonal edges. The nonlinear equations are approximated by using a problem-oriented Ritz Ansatz in combination with a Galerkin procedure. Based on the resulting equations the buckling and post-buckling behavior of a polygonal simply supported plate is studied in a nondimensional form, where the special geometry of the polygonal plate enters via the eigenvalues of a Helmholtz problem with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Single term as well as multi-term solutions are discussed including the effects of piezoelectric actuation and transverse force loadings upon the solution. Novel results concerning the buckling, snap through and snap buckling behavior are presented.
