This article discusses the relevant problem of ensuring transport connectivity under the conditions of temporal restrictions of the road network, which arise during repair, communal and emergency operations. It is established that the existing organizational and intellectual methods of traffic management do not eliminate physical decrease in road capacity, while construction of stationary structures with different levels is limited by high costs and long terms of implementation. The above substantiates the need for the development of mobile overpasses as adaptive engineering solutions ensuring continuity of the traffic flows. The purpose of the research is to develop a scientifically substantiated theoretical and experimental methodology for designing a mobile overpass as an integrated system “structure-moving load”, taking into account its dynamic behavior. The paper proposes an integrated approach based on the use of physical similarity theory and dimensionless analysis. A differential equation of dynamic bending of a beam on an elastic foundation is formulated taking into account inertia, damping, base reaction and the effect of a moving mass, and then its nondimensionalization is performed to obtain a similarity criteria system. The scientific novelty of the research consists in developing a system of dimensionless criteria to describe the relationship between the structural, dynamic and operational parameters of a mobile overpass, as well as in the formation of a criterion base for large-scale modeling and transfer of the results to full-scale structures. The proposed methodology describes the mobile overpass as an integrated transport-engineering system accounting for the coupled interaction between the deformable structure, moving traffic load, elastic foundation, and damping effects. Experimental verification was performed on a specially designed stand in the scale 1:4. The results obtained showed the quasi-static nature of the structure performance with moderate damping and rigid base. It is established that the distribution of engineering stresses along the span length has a regular character and retains its shape when the load level changes, which confirms fulfillment of similarity conditions. Regression analysis revealed a close to linear dependence of stresses on the load mass with a high degree of confidence (R2≈0.995). The practical significance of the research consists in creating an engineering method for express design of mobile overpasses, which allows for assessing their stress–strain state, stability and serviceability without expensive full-scale tests. The proposed approach can be used in designing temporary transportation structures under the conditions of urban area, and in operation in areas of road operations and emergency situations.
