Fatigue Property and Improvement of a Rounded Welding Region between the Diaphragm Plate and Closed Rib of an Orthotropic Steel Bridge Deck

By means of finite element modeling (FEM) and fatigue experiments, we study the fatigue performance of the rounded welding region between the diaphragm plate and closed rib of orthotropic steel bridge deck in this work. A local sub-model of the rounded welding region from the orthotropic steel bridg...
