Abstract
In this book we shall study in detail the effects of one type of load, i.e. of a moving load, on elastic and inelastic solids, elements and parts of structures, structures composed of those elements and parts, and on elastic media. Moving loads have a great effect on dynamic stresses in such bodies and structures, and cause them to vibrate intensively, especially at high velocities. Their peculiar feature is that they are variable in both time and space.
