Finite-element analysis of discretely supported rail subjected to multiple moving concentrated forces

Last updated on 16 October 2014 11:34

On the basis of the cubic Hermitian polynomials being used as the shape functions of a rail element and the conditions of equilibrium of forces acting in the vertical direction and of bending moment, this article presents a method for calculating the sectional force (i.e. shear force and bending moment)...
