Analytical Study of Concrete Pavement Behavior
This report presents research undertaken to develop a methodology to study concrete pavement behavior under dead load, temperature and a moving dynamic vehicle. The methodology developed considers concrete crack formation and corresponding stiffness degradation, soil nonlinear behavior and failure theory, vehicle vibration and velocity effect and the pavement roughness. The results obtained with the methodology could not be compared with other results because there is not any other comparable tools available, but the general behavior obtained seemed very logical for all the cases studied. From the examples studied it can be concluded that there is not an increase on dynamic response with an increase in the random generated roughness amplitude. Also, for the slab studied there is a decrease in the magnitude of the dynamic response with an increase in vehicle velocity. (aw)
