Response of beam on visco-elastic foundation to moving distributed load

The paper is devoted to the study of several cases of stationary dynamical problems in which motion is driven by a distributed load acting on a beam on an elastic foundation at a moving position. The velocity of motion is assumed constant. In particular, cases of a load described by the Heaviside function (or its linear superposition) and a harmonic function are studied. Some problems examined by the authors in their previous investigations are reviewed.
