Abstract

By using the formula derived in Part (I), the instant response of an unrestrained planar frame structure subjected to the impact of a moving rigid-body are evaluated and analysed. The impact force-time history between the structure and the moving rigid-body, shear force and bending moment distribution along the beams, axial force distribution along the bars were calculated. The wave propagation phenomena of the longitudinal wave in the bars, the flexural and shear waves in the beams were also analysed. The numerical results show that the time duration of impact force is controlled by the flexural wave and the longitudinal wave; the shear effect in beams should not be neglected in the impact response analysis of structures.
