Experimental study on the root-deck fatigue crack on orthotropic steel decks
The root-deck crack is one of the most concerned fatigue issues on orthotropic steel decks (OSDs) as it is unfavorable for the serviceability of the bridge while being difficult to detect.

Fatigue failure of welded connections at orthotropic bridges [PDF]
Orthotropic decks were applied to the long span bridges after World War II due to several advantages, such as light weight, high strength, few deck joints, durability, rapid construction, life-cycle economy. The fatigue problem of orthotropic decks was

Fatigue Reliability Assessment for Orthotropic Steel Bridge Decks Considering Load Sequence Effects
Fatigue damage accumulations would dramatically reduce the reliability and service life of the orthotropic steel decks. Incorrect fatigue assessment results may be obtained when load sequence effects are omitted. In the present study, fatigue reliability

Free vibration analysis of multi-span orthotropic bridge deck with rubber bearings
In this paper, a semi-analytical approach is proposed for free vibration analysis of a multi-span, orthotropic bridge deck with rubber bearings. This allows more realistic modeling of vibration transmission from a bridge’s deck to its supports.
