Capacity of Longitudinal Stiffener Ribs of Orthotropic Bridge Decks under Wheel Loads and Axial Force

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1352-1361, September 2026.
Abstract Bridge decks with longitudinal trapezoidal stiffeners are widely used in long‐span steel bridges because they offer an effective balance of strength, structural efficiency, and durability. Key design challenges are accurately predicting the internal forces that develop in these stiffened decks under concentrated wheel loads, and how stiffener ...

Hot Spot Stress Evaluation of Welded Cope Hole Using Multi‐Scale FE Modelling

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 1852-1857, September 2026.
Abstract The welded joints of the orthotropic deck of steel bridges are vulnerable to fatigue phenomena due to ageing and overloading conditions. Therefore, the accurate assessment of fatigue life depends on the precise estimation of stress concentrations at the critical details.

Fatigue performance of crossbeam‐to‐stiffener welded details adopted in OSD bridges

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2733-2738, September 2026.
Abstract Orthotropic Steel Decks (OSDs) are extensively employed in bridge engineering for medium‐ to long‐span viaducts, primarily due to their high strength‐to‐weight efficiency and the reduced need for additional reinforced concrete components. However, the large number of welded joints, combined with the significant influence of cyclic loading ...

Bending behavior of steel-UHPC composite bridge deck based on epoxy adhesive

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2022
Using ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) as the pavement layer on the orthotropic steel deck (OSD) can greatly enhance the rigidity to solve the fatigue cracking of the steel deck and the resulting damage to the pavement layer. However, the thin UHPC
