Fatigue life prediction of orthotropic steel deck strengthened with UHPC under stochastic traffic load

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2023
In recent years, the ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) has been increasingly used to strengthen orthotropic steel decks (OSD) to solve the cracking problems at fatigue-prone details and pavement damage.

Optimum design of composite prestressed concrete girder railway bridges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper deals with the formulation of design optimisation of pretsressed concrete bridges. The bridge is of a slab-on-girder type, hence modeled as an equivalent orthotropic plate.

Temperature Measurements During Asphalt Paving on a Bridge with Orthotropic Deck

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 233-237, December 2025.
Abstract Currently, there is no defined load case for asphalt paving in bridge design codes. This often leads to discussions during the planning of bridges in Germany, particularly for steel bridges. As part of the rehabilitation of the Franz Joseph Strauβ Bridge in Passau, the pavement was removed and newly installed.

Structural behavior of deteriorated Gerber half‐joints in highway overpasses by nonlinear finite element analysis combined with a simplified uniform‐corrosion model

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 5677-5707, October 2025.
Abstract Gerber half‐joints, broadly used in the last century as elements of concrete bridges, are prone to corrosion‐induced deterioration, which may lead to brittle shear collapse. It is of paramount importance to develop advanced numerical models for simulating the collapse behavior of Gerber half‐joints, taking material deterioration into account ...
