DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF ELASTICALLY SUPPORTED GIRDER TO THE PASSAGE OF TRAIN

To reduce the ground vibration produced by passage of high- speed trains, the use of elastic support for bridge girders has been proposed. A method of analysis for dynamic response of such girders under passage of Shin Kansen trains has been developed. Response is much affected by the elasticity of the support. Further study of the running safety of the trains, strength of the rail at the girder ends, and of the stability of the girder during earthquakes must be investigated.
