Currently,traditional analysis and design methods are unreasonable in evaluating the performance and safety of pavements.The characteristic of shakedown theory lends itself particularly to the analysis of pavements.Based on the lower bound shakedown theory,a simple and practical procedure for shakedown analysis of pavements has been developed using plastic strain energy as shakedown criteria via considering a special loading path.The proposed method is verified by using a homogeneous isotropic half space.Then,the method is applied to analyze a two-layered pavement.The dependence of shakedown limit on material properties of pavements is investigated in details.According to the analysis results,some valuable references are suggested for the selection of materials for accurate evaluation of the bearing performance of pavement under traffic loading.
Currently, traditional analysis and design methods are unreasonable in evaluating the performance and safety of pavements. The characteristic of shakedown theory lends itself particularly to the analysis of pavesments. Based on the lower bound shakedown theory, a simple and practical procedure for shakedown analysis of pavements has been developed using plastic strain energy as shakedown criteria via considering a special loading path. The proposed method is verified by using a homogeneous isotropic half space. Chen, the method is applied to analyze a two-layered pavement. The dependence of shakedown limit on material properties of pavements is investigated in details. According to the analysis results, some valuable references are suggested for the selection of materials for accurate evaluation of the bearing performance of pavement under traffic loading.
