3D-FE of jointed plain concrete pavement over continuum elastic foundation to obtain the edge stress

Abstract The article presents the results of computational modeling of a rigid pavement with load applied to the edge of the slab, for which a multipurpose software (ABAQUS / CAE) based on the finite element method is used. First, it is explained in detail how computational modeling is performed, ta...
