摘要
In recent years, it has been found that multiple cracks coexist in the existing steel bridge orthotropic steel decks (OSDs) longitudinal rib-to-floorbeam (RF) details. The synergistic expansion mechanism of multiple cracks in the orthotropic steel bridge deck panel is still unclear. This paper proposes a multiscale extension finite element method based on ABAQUS and FRANC 3D interactive technology to simulate the fatigue crack propagation behavior of steel bridge RF details under dynamic vehicle loading. The effectiveness of this method is verified by comparing experimental data. The crack propagation behavior of longitudinal rib weld toes, transverse diaphragm weld toes, and transverse diaphragm arc notches is studied, and the influence of fatigue crack length and angle on the initial crack stress intensity factor (SIF) of adjacent details is discussed.
