This research paper presents a comprehensive structural analysis of flexible pavements using the ANSYS Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulation package. The primary objective was to evaluate the deformation and stress responses of flexible pavements under applied loads. The methodology involved developing a detailed CAD model of the pavement, meshing it accurately to capture critical features, and applying realistic loading and boundary conditions to simulate various traffic and environmental scenarios. The analysis revealed significant findings, including the identification of maximum normal stress and maximum deformation occurring near the load application zones. Additionally, the study highlighted the distribution of principal elastic strains, indicating potential areas of structural concern, such as cracking or rutting. These insights underscore the importance of robust material selection and design strategies in enhancing pavement durability and performance. The results provide valuable data for optimizing pavement design and maintenance practices, contributing to the development of more resilient and sustainable transportation infrastructure.
