- This problem studies the response of two single degree of freedom bridge systems shown in Figure 1 under three loading cases. The problem has two parts. Part A and Part B use the same loading cases but the system is modified. Assume the following three loading cases in both Part A and Part B: (a) Harmonic wind load acting on the bridge deck pw(t) = powsin(ωwt) with amplitude pow and forcing circular frequency ωw. (b) Harmonic displacement base excitation acting at the base of the bridge pier ug(t) = ugosin(ωgt) with amplitude ugo and displacement circular frequency ωg. (c) Rectangular pulse load acting on the bridge deck with amplitude pop and pulse duration td. Part A The system includes part of a bridge deck and a bridge pier shown in Figure 1(a).
