Fracture characteristics of a cement concrete pavement plate considering subgrade modulus decay based on a meshless finite block method

The decrease in the subgrade modulus immersed in rainwater can significantly increase the fracture risk of a cement concrete pavement plate. The aim of this study was to develop a meshless finite block method (MFBM) to reveal the failure mechanism of a cement concrete pavement due to the weakening o...
