This lecture covers the concept of influence lines for structures subjected to mobile loads, such as vehicles on bridges. It explains how to define mobile load trains, calculate influence lines using equilibrium of fragments, and their relationship with NVM diagrams. Examples illustrate the calculation of reactions and internal forces at different positions along a beam.
