Abstract EN
The structural mechanics analysis of the Portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP) is considerably complicated and distinctive.
From the application viewpoint, the capabilities and characteristics of two typical professional finite element software products, named KENSLABS and EverFE, are analyzed.
The similarities and differences between these two programs are compared.
The comparisons focus on some key factors of modeling and solution strategies, such as element type, meshing, traffic load and temperature curling, boundary conditions, and contact conditions.
Based on one specific case example, the two software products were conducted to demonstrate their main functions.
The research results clarify the performance of the two software products for structural analysis of cement concrete pavement and indicate each application conditions from their respective features, which can provide valuable references for software users and program developers.
