Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of road safety detection, and in particular to a method for estimating the state of an asphalt overlay layer based on the fracturing state of a cement pavement. Background Art

[0002] When renovating old cement concrete pavements, asphalt overlays can significantly improve comfort. They also offer advantages such as full utilization of the existing pavement structure, low cost, and minimal traffic disruption, leading to their widespread application. However, asphalt overlays are prone to reflective cracking at the joints of the original cement pavement during use, seriously impacting the service life of the overlay. Therefore, controlling reflective cracking is a crucial factor in the design of asphalt overlays. Repeated load action is a major cause of reflective cracking. During load action, excessive shear deformation of the slab edges at the joints or compression cracks in the original cement pavement leads to excessive stress on the bottom surface of the asphalt layer, causing cracking. The cracks then propagate toward the surface of the overlay, forming surface cracks. To address this failure mode of asphalt overlays, design should prioritize controlling shear deformation at the joints of the original cement pavement. Cracking and stabilizing old cement concrete pavements during renovation can reduce stress concentration at the original joints. While significant attention is paid to shear and overall deformation at the joints or compression cracks in the original pavement, previously proposed shear deformation indices or formulas are often empirical and difficult to adapt to the varying conditions of pavement structure. Therefore, the present invention proposes a method for estimating the state of an asphalt overlay layer based on the fracturing state of a cement pavement to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention develops a method for predicting the state of asphalt overlay based on the fracturing state of cement pavement. By constructing a fracturing model of the old cement concrete pavement and a composite model of the asphalt overlay of the cement pavement, the shear deformation at the fracturing cracks of the cement pavement and the shear stress at the bottom of the asphalt overlay at the fracturing cracks of the old cement pavement are analyzed. The state of the asphalt overlay can be better predicted according to the fracturing state of the cement pavement.

[0004] The technical solution to the technical problem of the present invention is a method for estimating the state of an asphalt overlay layer based on the fracturing state of a cement pavement, comprising the following steps: S1. Collect relevant data of cement pavement; S2. A finite element numerical calculation method was used to construct a model of the compression fracture of an old cement concrete pavement. Specifically, a bidirectional contact element was used to simulate the occlusal state of the cracks at the compression fracture site of the old cement concrete pavement. The effects of the elastic coefficient of the bidirectional contact element and the bottom support of the fractured cement concrete slab on the shear deformation of the fractured cracks were analyzed. S3. Construct a composite model of the old cement concrete pavement and the asphalt overlay after fracturing, and obtain the state of the asphalt overlay by calculating the fatigue life and allowable shear stress of the asphalt overlay on the cracks at the fracturing location.

[0005] S1 is as follows: The relevant data of cement pavement are specifically data of old cement concrete pavement in a fracturing state, which are used to construct a fracturing model of old cement concrete pavement; The data used to construct the fracturing model of old cement concrete pavement include elastic modulus, and the corresponding Poisson's ratio is determined based on the measured elastic modulus; The data used to construct the old cement concrete pavement cracking model also include the length and width of the cracked cement concrete slab; The data used to construct the old cement concrete pavement cracking model also include foundation depth, applied load, and wheel load ground contact shape.

[0006] Based on the collected cement pavement data, the finite element numerical calculation method is used to construct the fracturing model of the old cement concrete pavement. The specific operations are as follows: Apply full constraint boundary conditions to the bottom surface of the old cement concrete pavement fracture model so that the displacement of the model in all directions is zero; Free boundary conditions are imposed on the side of the old cement concrete pavement fracture model, so that the displacement of the side nodes in all directions is unrestricted; The degrees of freedom of the top surface nodes of the old cement concrete pavement cracking model are kept open.

The load is applied at the wheel load location, and the local mesh is encrypted at the load application location. The mesh is refined at the cracks of the fractured cement concrete slab and the nearby asphalt overlay location.

[0009] The process of constructing a composite model of the old cement concrete pavement after fracturing and the asphalt overlay is as follows: Assuming that the interlayer characteristics between the asphalt overlay and the old cement concrete pavement after fracturing are completely continuous, the overlay asphalt layer is directly added to the fracturing model of the old cement concrete pavement to obtain a composite model of the old cement concrete pavement after fracturing and the asphalt overlay.

[0024] Example 2 In order to better demonstrate the technical effect of the present invention, according to the finite element numerical calculation results, by setting the elastic coefficient of the bidirectional contact unit at different joints , the wheel load was 100KN, the size was 22cm×16cm, and the horizontal normal stress, shear stress and crack shear deformation index of the bottom of the asphalt overlay layer were measured. According to the Coulomb strength theory, the ultimate shear strength and allowable shear strength of the bottom of the asphalt overlay layer were calculated. The crack shear deformation index is based on the equivalent rebound modulus of the bottom foundation of the slab. and the required fatigue cracking number N, the results under different conditions are shown in Table 1; Table 1 Calculation results of ultimate shear strength and allowable shear strength of asphalt overlay bottom The ultimate shear strength and allowable shear strength data of the asphalt overlay bottom are converted into a curve. The crack shear deformation index corresponding to the intersection of the two is the crack shear deformation that reaches the fatigue life of this allowable shear strength curve. The crack shear deformation index corresponding to N = 1000 and N = 5000 under different equivalent rebound moduli are shown in Table 2. Table 2 Crack shear deformation index The process of estimating the status of the asphalt overlay based on the above results is as follows: (1) Determine parameters: Determine the equivalent rebound modulus Et of the slab foundation and the required number of fatigue cracking times N; (2) Lookup table: Find the corresponding crack shear deformation standard in the table according to the determined equivalent rebound modulus Et and the required fatigue cracking number N; (3) Linear interpolation: If the values ​​of Et and N are not directly given in the table, linear interpolation is required to estimate the crack shear deformation; (4) Comparison: Compare the calculated or table-based crack shear deformation value with the actual measured crack shear deformation value. If the actual crack shear deformation value exceeds the standard value given in the table, the structure or pavement needs to be reinforced or maintained.

[0025] The crack shear deformation index can be obtained by linear interpolation in the table based on the equivalent rebound modulus of the slab bottom foundation and the required number of fatigue cracking times. If the deflection difference during different fatigue cracking loads is below the standard value, it means that the asphalt overlay layer is in good condition at this time; when the shear deformation value is greater than the standard value, it means that the asphalt overlay layer at this time does not meet normal use and needs maintenance.

Based on the technical solution of the present invention, various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
