FLEXURAL STRESS ANALYSIS OF RIGID PAVEMENTS USING AXI-SYMMETRIC AND PLANE STRAIN FEM
The design of pavement involves a study of soils and paving materials, their response under load for different climatic conditions.In the present study, an attempt has been made to compare stresses predicted using two finite element analyses.First analysis is based on the twodimensional plane HEAVY COCONUT CREAM strain assumption where as in second
