Abstract: By using finite element method, the thermal stress of stress absorption interlayer of asphalt overlay on the cement concrete pavement is analyzed in this paper. The result shows that the inter-laminar shear stress and the structural vertical displacement are influenced by the thickness of stress absorption layer, while the asphalt bottom stress is less affected; the increase of the modulus is unfavorable to the structural vertical displacement, the inter-laminar shear stress and the asphalt bottom stress.

Abstract: Through a series of laboratory experiments, we find that: Polypropylene fiber mesh, which is added to the concrete, can improve the performance of the road. But the use of polypropylene fiber mesh is not the higher the better. The recommended content is 0.9 Kg/m3.

Abstract: Using ordinary material, calculating through the external addition method and then adjusting through experimental tests, the mixing proportion of cement mortar is determined. The testing results show that: when the water cement ratio is 0.50, the fly ash content is too large and the strength of cement mortar will sharply decrease with the increase of its content. Therefore, the fly ash content in engineering cannot exceed 30% of the gelled material.

Abstract: In order to study the rutting problem of asphalt pavement, this paper sets up a three-dimensional model of asphalt pavement with finite element. By analyzing the mechanical response of high-modulus asphalt concrete at different layers, this paper finds out the layer set of high-modulus asphalt concrete. At the same time, it further analyzes the influence of the modulus’ size and thickness of the high-modulus asphalt concrete on the load-carrying capability of road structure. The results show that high-modulus asphalt concrete can significantly restrain rutting problem and the recommend ideal modulus is between 2000MPa and 2500MPa; the ideal thickness ranges from 5cm to 7cm.

Abstract: The method to analysis the strength of planetary trains’ carriers of EPB(earth pressure balance) shield machine is presented in this paper. The structure of the shield machine trains is analyzed and the 3-D solid model of the carrier is built with Pro/E. After the load on the carrier has been dealt with, the strength of carrier is calculated by means of finite element method. The results via ANSYS show that the max stress and strain on the carriers are increasing as the increasing load on it. The max stress is lying on the joint point of the carrier and planetary gear shaft because of the bending deformation of the shaft.
