In order to investigate the force characteristic of different steel deck pavement under extreme temperature and load coupling situation, we established the three dimensional extreme high temperature and extreme low temperature field of simple supported beam bridge, the paving structure were double layered SMA, double layered epoxy concrete, SMA+GA, using material elastic modulus changing with temperature. Analysis indicated that the maximum value of high temperature normal stress occurred in the epoxy upper layer pavement, the maximum value of shear stress occurred in the epoxy lower layer pavement, the maximum value of high temperature strain occurred in the upper layer of double layered SMA pavement. The maximum value of low temperature stress occurred in the SMA+GA lower layer pavement, the maximum value of low temperature strain occurred in the SMA+GA upper layer pavement, the maximum value of shear strain occurred in the SMA lower layer pavement. The maximum value of high temperature stress usually occurred in the bottom of pavement layer, maximum strain usually occurred on top of pavement layer. The maximum value of low temperature shear stress and shear strain usually occurred in the bottom of pavement layer, normal strain occurred on top of pavement layer. The stress difference between the upper and lower layers in SMA+GA pavement structure is very large which adversely affected the structural force.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
