The paper deals with the stochastic analysis of a single-degree-of-freedom vehicle moving at a constant velocity along an infinite Bernoulli-Euler beam with surface irregularities supported by a Kelvin foundation. Both the Bernoulli-Euler beam and the Kelvin foundation are assumed to be constant and deterministic. This also applies to the mass, spring stiffness, and damping coefficient of the vehicle. At first the equations of motion for the vehicle and beam are formulated in a coordinate system following the vehicle. The frequency response functions for the displacement of the vehicle and beam are determined for harmonically varying surface irregularities. Next, the surface irregularities are modeled as a random process. The variance response of the mass of the vehicle as well as the displacement variance of the beam under the oscillator are determined in terms of the autospectrum of the surface irregularities. ©2002 ASME
