Abstract
The equivalent stiffness of a saturated poroelastic halfspace that supports an infinite Euler-Bernoulli beam under a moving point load has been investigated in this paper. The smooth contact condition is assumed for the interface of beam and halfspace, however, with an improved continuity condition, i.e. the continuities of contact normal stress and contact vertical displacements are imposed across the width of the beam. The equivalent stiffness of the halfspace has been evaluated using a contour integration approach such that contributions of the Rayleigh pole and the dispersion branches can be explicitly taken into account. Influences of the continuity condition and the permeability on the equivalent stiffness have been studied. It is found that the imaginary part of the equivalent stiffness is nonzero since the viscous coupling between two phases of the saturated halfspace has been considered. This observation fundamentally differentiates the present paper to the work by Shi and Selvadurai (2016) where an infinite permeability has been assumed for the halfspace, i.e. null viscous coupling.
