The carriageway plate, which is a bridge structure, directly bears the traffic load and can cause fatigue rupture easily by repeated loading. This study put forward an analysis model of reinforced concrete T-shaped girder carriageway plate girders to reveal the law of the influences of internal factors, such as length-width and thickness-width ratios of two-and one-way slabs, on the fatigue performance of carriageway plates. The physical girder space model was established using the Midas/FEA finite element software. The correlation between the fatigue stress level, length-width ratio, and thickness-width ratio of carriageway plates and the fatigue performance of carriageway plates of ribbed-girder bridges was analyzed using traditional fatigue analysis methods based on the S-N curve and Miner linear cumulative damage theory. The fatigue life and rupture areas were determined. The change rules of fatigue life and damage degrees of structure girders under different influencing factors were determined. Results show that a significant negative correlation exists between the length-width ratio and fatigue life of carriageway plate when the length-width ratio of one-way slabs ranges from 4.0 to 6.0. The fatigue life decreases linearly with the increase in the length-width ratio when the lengthwidth ratio of two-way slabs ranges from 1.0 to 1.9. The anti-fatigue performance of two-way slabs is stronger than that of one-way slabs. In addition, setting the thickness-width ratio of a carriageway plate between 0.07 and 0.08 is economically reasonable. This study provides a certain reference value for the further perfection of the anti-fatigue design of carriageway plates of reinforced concrete ribbed-girder bridges.

A novel ceramic sensing material, orthorhombic molybdenum trioxide (a-MoO3) nanobelts, was successfully prepared through a simple hydrothermal strategy. And its crystalline phase and microstructures were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results indicate that the size of the a-MoO3 nanobeltsis 180-250 nm in width and several microns in length. Gas sensing performances of the as-synthesized a-MoO3 nanobelts towards acetone vapor which was a representative VOCs in asphalt were investigated. The a-MoO3 nanobelts based gas sensor exhibits superior response at the optimum operating temperature of 300 °C for 200 ppm acetone vapor and excellent stability. The gas sensing mechanism for the a-MoO3 nanobelts to acetone vapor was also discussed.
