Abstract
The maximum acceleration response of even and uneven single span bridges is studied to find the effect of different influencing parameters. The bridge is modeled as a single span beam with even and uneven decks. The vehicle i s modeled as a single degree of freedom sprung mass with constant speed. Th e unevenness is assumed to be a deterministic profile in the shape of a sin usoidal wave. The maximum acceleration responses considering the effect of varying bridge parameters and vehicle parameters are compared.
