Traffic circulation on highways is a random process. Therefore automotive damage rate and, respectively, roads on which they are moving is subjected to regularities of random processes. Dynamic processes of vehicle-road interaction are determined to various extents by a host of factors that include road pavement evenness and characteristics of moving vehicles. For this reason the following task has been set: to reveal the most significant factors and mathematically correlate values of vehicle dynamic loads with a quality of road pavement and vehicle speed. Such task statement has not been solved adequately and this situation determines importance and novelty of the investigations in the given direction. While solving the mentioned task the investigations which have been carried out under real-life conditions and with the help of real-life objects are considered as the most reliable ones. However, preparation and execution of such experiments as needed significantly complicates their implementation. In this regard it looks rather expediential to combine a factorial experiment with the tests of a checked model while using ECM with stage-by-stage parameter fixation of working processes passing in “vehicle-road” system, comprehensive assessment pertaining to influence of the selected factors and selection of their optimum combination. Mathematical dependence has been obtained to evaluate influence of several external factors on optimization of vehicle dynamic load on the road. This component makes it possible to attain a simplified and adequate description of element interaction in “vehicle – road” system. While investigating influence of pavement irregularities on maximum dynamic loads on the road influence rate of the selected factors is determined in the following sequence: vehicle weight, pavement evenness and speed of transport facility.

Tilt bulldozing generates unbalanced loads on two push arms, which leads to the service lives of the two push arms being different. Because the push arms rotate in triaxial directions during tilt bulldozing, it is difficult to accurately analyze the fatigue life of the push arm with one specific boundary condition and loading history. Therefore, a fatigue analysis of the push arms under tilt bulldozing conditions is proposed based on co-simulation of RecurDyn-EDEM-AMESim in this paper. The control of tilt bulldozing conditions is realized automatically according to the tilt angle and blade depth. The dynamic loads of the push arms are accurately calculated in this virtual model. Subsequently, the stress–time histories are obtained to investigate the fatigue lives of push arms. Both the overall damage and the initiation positions of the cracks are predicted herein. It is determined that the fatigue lives of the right and left push arms are 7,317.84 h and 39,381.89 h, respectively. Thus, the life of the push arm on the blade’s tilted side is reduced by 81.42% compared to the other side. Additionally, experimental tests are conducted to verify the accuracy of the virtual model. Analysis results indicate that the strains of the push arms according to the virtual simulation are close to those measured in the experiments.

AbstractA lot of structures failure on the bridge, causes a collapsed to the bridges. The reason of the collapsed was dynamic loads that happen on the bridge. Dynamic loads make stress and relax happen at the same time. Fatigue analysis is an analysis that calculate the dynamic load that happen on the bridge, with counting the big vehicle or truck. Fatigue analysis can’t analyze all the element with one step. In this research the bridge was a truss bridge with span 70 m as the main structure. In fatigue analysis, stress that used was stress that caused by dead load and stress that caused by the big vehicle or truck passing through. The value between that stresses used to call stress range. In AASHTO the value of truck that passing truck in a traffic called Average Daily Truck Traffic (ADTT). Stringer, cross beam, and main truss was the element that will be analyzed. In this structure we use category B, where ADTT is 860, Threshold is 110 MPa, A is 39,3 x 1011, and the n is 1. From stress range that happen in the structure, we can find the age and ADTT until the bridge collapse because fatigue. In the end the elements that had the lowest age and the lowest ADTT was the main truss, where it just has 27 years old left and can only take 299 truck/day. Then the bridge has to get a maintenance and repair before it gets 27 years old.Keywords : Fatigue, age, ADTT, stress rangeAbstrakBanyak terjadinya kegagalan struktur pada jembatan, yang menyebabkan keruntuhan pada jembatan. Hal itu disebabkan oleh beban dinamis yang terjadi pada jembatan. Beban dinamis membuat terjadinya tegangan dan relaksasi dalam waktu bersamaan. Analisa fatik merupakan perhitungan dengan memperhitungkan beban dinamis yang terjadi pada jembatan, dengan beban dianggap sebagai kendaraan besar atau truk. Memperhitungkan kondisi fatik tidak dapat dihitung langsung untuk satu jembatan. Dalam analisa ini menggunakan jembatan dengan bentang 70 m sebagai struktur rangka atasnya. Pada Analisa fatik tegangan yang dihitung berupa tegangan akibat beban sendiri pada jembatan dan tegangan ketika dilalui oleh kendaraan besar atau truk. Perbedaan tegangan tersebut biasa disebut dengan stress range. Pada AASHTO, lalu lintas harian rata-rata (LHR) biasa disebut Average daily truck traffic (ADTT). Elemen yang dihitung berupa stringer, cross beam, dan batang rangka utama. Pada struktur ini kategori yang digunakan adalah kategori B dengan ADTT sebesar 860, threshold sebesar 110 MPa, A sebesar 39,3 x 1011 MPa3 dan n sebesar 1. Dari stress range yang didapat, maka dapat dicari umur jembatan serta ADTT hingga jembatan pada kondisi fatik. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa elemen yang mempunyai umur dan ADTT terendah adalah batang rangka utama, dengan nilai umur rencana 27 tahun dan ADTT 299 truk/hari. Dengan demikian dapat dinyatakan bahwa jembatan harus diberi perkuatan saat umur mendekati 27 tahun.Kata kunci : Fatik, umur rencana, ADTT, stress range.
