Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a bridge where a car passes over it at time t = 0, producing a load represented by δ(t). How would you use the Dirac delta function to analyze the effect on the bridge's structure?

💡 Hint: Think about how the impulse behaves over time.

Question 2

A concentrated load P is applied at point x = a along a beam described by the differential equation. How would you set up the governing equation including the Dirac delta function?

💡 Hint: Focus on how to represent point loading mathematically.
