Abstract:

The main object of this paper is to apply the vector form intrinsic finite element (VFIFE, or V-5) techniques in nonlinear large deformation dynamic analysis for the responses of moving loads on rigid frame structures. In this study, the simulation of moving loading is brought into the vector form intrinsic finite element method. It can effectively simulate the moving load. Comparing the results of the numerical simulations by VFIFE with the results obtained from other literatures, they are very close. It proved that VFIFE can effectively simulate the nonlinear large deformation dynamic problem.
