Abstract
In order to study the coupled influence of deck pavement roughness and velocity on dynamic amplification factor, a 2‐DOF 1/4 vehicle model is employed to establish the vehicle‐bridge‐coupled vibration system. The random dynamic load of running vehicle simulated by software MATLAB is applied on bridge deck pavement (BDP) through ANSYS software. Besides, the influence of BDP parameters on control stress under static load and random vibration load is analyzed. The results show that if the surface of BDP is smooth, the dynamic magnification coefficient would first increase and then decrease with increasing of vehicle velocity and reach its maximum value when v = 20 m/s; if the surface of BDP is rough, the maximal and minimum values of the dynamic amplification coefficient (DAC) occur, respectively, when the velocity reaches 10 m/s and 15 m/s. For a composite bridge deck with the cushion layer, the thickness of asphalt pavement should be not too thick or thin and better to be controlled for about 10 cm; with the increasing of cushion layer thickness, the control stress of deck pavement is all decreased and show similar change regularity under effect of different loads. In view of self‐weight of structure, the thickness of the cushion layer is recommended to be controlled for about 4 cm.
