there are several methods for estimation of structural dynamic to predict the behaviour of the structure in motion. i am looking for a valid technique to analyze the movement of a bridge with single degree of freedom. i think most of the impact of the movement will be observed from the first mode shape of the structure when it subjected to any movement. i new in this research and want to explore this topic. if anyone can provide me some material regarding this topic i will be thankfull
I would recommend to watch the differences emerging between ideal modelling and dynamic (dialectical) modelling of the same phenomena. Ideal modelling is static, theoretical, only having main decisive elements, sometimes very few elements, while dynamic (dialectical) modelling shows the motions of structures with all the elements in time and space, and is a "real life" model. On observing the differences occurring between ideal and dynamic (dialectical) models You can notice and define the motions of structures. At least - in social and humanitarian sciences.
Dear Ali,
I have attached an article for your reference. I advise you to please read the complete paper to clear all your queries. I hope this will definitely help, as it covers the complete overview of recent applications on vision-based vibration monitoring of structures (including bridges).

I am not an engineer, but I do know that a bridge is a system with an "endostructure" and an "exostructure". I think that the appropriate approach is to take into account both the relationships between the components of the bridge and their relationships (and the bridge as a whole) with the environment (everything that interacts with the bridge).
