Dever Uygulaması Yapılmış Bir Yatay Kurbanın Sonlu Elemanlar Yöntemi ile İncelenmesi

Bu çalışmada dever uygulaması yapılmış bir yatay kurbanın kaplama tabakası altındaki gerilme-birim şekil değiştirme ve kaplama ömrü değerleri dever sebebiyle değişen kesitlere bağlı olarak analiz edilmiştir. Bu amaçla deverin 0-8 (%) değerleri arasında değişimine bağlı olarak ve ayrıca tekerlek temas gerilmesinin pozisyonu değiştirilerek birim şekil değiştirme değerleri sonlu elemanlar yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre dever değerinin artmasına bağlı olarak kaplama ömrü azalmıştır. Bu azalma değeri deverin 8% olması ve yükleme noktasının kaplama kenarına olan mesafesinin azalması ile 34% seviyesinde hesaplanmıştır.

A Finite Element Investigation of the Superelevated Horizontal Curve

Stress-strain analyses are studied under the bottom of the pavement layer, and pavement life valuesare calculated depending on the cross-section variation because of the superelevation in horizontal curves. Forthis purpose, 1st principal total mechanical strain values are analyzed with the superelevation values changingbetween 0-8 (%) and the different positions of wheel contact pressure. Finite element method is used foranalysis. According to results of the study, it is obtained that pavement life decreases with the increasingsuperelevation, in the case of 8% superelevation and decreasing the distance to pavement edge, pavement lifedecreasing gets to 34%.
