This method derives the governing equations of a bridge-vehicle system with three-dimensional automobile method and spatial freedoms of bridge, solving the governing equations by Newmark- method after reducing the bridge's freedoms with its mode-shapes which are obtained by FEM. As there is no special restriction for the bridge structure and the automobile mode is standardized, the proposed method can consider the case with different bridge structures and automobile modes. The numerical examples shows that this method is reliable and has high precision.Read More
