This paper presents analytic bending moment solution and resonance diagrams for a uniform beam of infinite length subjected to anaxial force and moving transverse load. Solutions are obtained that are time invariant in a coordinate system moving with the load velocity. The supporting foundation includes damping effects. The influences of the axial force, damping coefficient and load velocity on the beam response are studied. The limiting case of no damping and critial damping are also investigated. The profiles of the mement of the beam is shown graphically for several values of the load speed, the axial force and damping parameters.
