Finite element analysis of flexible pavement using Abaqus software (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

This research conducts a finite element analysis of flexible pavements using the Abaqus software, aiming to enhance the design methodologies for pavements. The study compares various empirical methods, highlighting the advantages and shortcomings of existing design approaches, including the AASHTO design guide. Key findings include detailed stress and strain evaluations for different pavement models under varying load conditions, revealing significant insights into the predictive modeling of rutting depths and structural responses.
