Inverse Dynamic Analysis of an Inclined FGM Beam Due to Moving Load for Estimating the Mass of Moving Load Based on a CGM

In this paper, the use of the inverse solution method for estimating the mass of moving load on an inclined functionally graded material (FGM) Timoshenko beam is discussed based on the measured displacements. Fletcher–Reeves (FR) method is used to solve the inverse problem. Also, in the process of solving the inverse problem and in order to solve the direct problem, Newmark method is applied for discretization of the time domain and finite...
