Triangular elements which include the transverse shear effects are us.d for the stress analysis. A new method for the calculation of the shear correction factors is presented. Several failure criteria are used to check the first ply failure and distinguish the laminate failure modes into fiber breakage or buckling, matrix cracking and delamination. After the failure is detected, the stiffness of the failed ply is modified according to the failure modes. The ultimate strength of the laminate is obtained by an iterative way. Several examples are given in the paper for stress analysis and progressive failure analysis of composite laminates.展开更多

Three important indices that control the typical failures of the paving layerare the maximum tensile stress of paving layer, the maximum shear stress between the steel deck andthe paving layer, and the maximum deflection on the paving surface. In this paper, the analyticalmodel of paving systems on orthotropic steel bridge deck is established, and the finite elementmethod is adopted to study the stress and strain of paving system. With the variation of asphaltconcrete modulus in high or low temperature season, the influences of paving layer thickness onthree control indices are researched. The results provide a theoretical basis for the determinationof thickness of the paving layer on the steel bridge deck.展开更多
