Introduction
One of the main problems of asphalt concrete pavements is the appearance of
cracks. This is typical for roads [1-6] and bridges [7-13]. One of the reasons for
the appearance of cracks can be temperature deformations [14–16]. However, they
have the feature that they grow along with seasonal temperature fluctuations over
a long time. And taking into consideration that asphalt concrete is a material with
pronounced rheological properties [17, 18] it will lead to relaxation of most of the
stresses. Thus, a significant contribution to the formation of cracks will be made
by loads increasing to their maximum values in short periods of time. When it
comes to the asphalt concrete pavement of bridges wheel load is considered. This
problem is especially relevant in the case of metal bridges with an orthotropic
plate, where the orthotropic plate floor bends relatively to the longitudinal and
transverse stiffeners. Subsequently it leads to the tensile stresses appearance in the
asphalt concrete of the bridge sheet and in these places.
Thus, in addition to computational models that allow taking into account the
temperature stresses [15]. It is necessary to develop a computational model that
involves accounting the wheel effect on a multilayer plate made up of orthotropic
metal flooring and bridge layers, reinforced by longitudinal and transverse
stiffeners.
At this stage, we are developing a calculation model that takes into account
only one layer of the plate, namely the metal flooring, as well as the impact of
longitudinal stiffeners. In future, this model will be improved and the transverse
stiffeners and layers of the bridge canvas will be taken into consideration, if it will
possible using this approach.
The boundary conditions for supporting the slab are taken into account by
selecting the corresponding function w(x,y). At this stage, a search was made for a
solution for hinged support of the plate, as shown in Fig. 1, which is provided by a
function of the following form:
m n
Coefficients Aij we obtain substituting (2) in (1) and integrating the found
equation with respect to x and y in the interval 0≤x≤a and 0≤y≤b, having
previously multiplied both its parts by sin(iπx/a)sin(jπy/b). Thus, we get m·n linear
algebraic equations, which is sufficient to obtain the coefficients Aij. In the case of
articulation, Aij are expressed explicitly:

- Step k. It makes sense for k>1. The plate is still affected by the system of
external forces P (Fig. 4), but in addition, the system of reactive forces of the rib
Fik-1 from step k-1. As a result, we obtain deflections and new values of reactive
forces: dik, Fik.
Thus, we get two sequences: {dik} and {Fik}, where {xk} means a sequence of
values with variable index k. In this case, dik and Fik denote the system of
deflections and forces. If the sequence {Fik} tends to a certain value as k→∞ , for
example Fi, we have a situation where the deflections of the plate and the ribs are
equal at the points of application of reactive forces. The forces of influence of the
rib on the plate are equal to the force of the plate on the rib as well. This justifies
the possibility to use the successive approximations method and makes it possible
to take longitudinal ribs into account, since the reactive force systems Fi for each
rib can be applied to the plate.

Next we use the matrix notation of the following form: {a1,…,am} – matrix row
a11 ⋯ a1 m
of length m; ⋮
[ ]
⋱ ⋮ – rectangular matrix of size n by m; (a1,…,an) –
an 1 ⋯ anm
matrix column of height n.
Then, if the system of forces (F1,…,Fnn)=F acts on the beam at points with
coordinates (x1,…,xnn)=x, the deflections (d1,…,dnn)=d are defined as follows:
d=W×F (6)
where × – a symbol denoting matrix multiplication;

W 1 ( x 1 , x 1) ⋯ W 1( x1 , xnn )
W=
[ ⋮ ⋱ ⋮
]
W 2 (x nn , x 1 ) ⋯ W 1 (x nn , x nn) – matrix of size nn by nn, where
element aij=W1(xi,xj) if j≥i and element aij=W2(xi,xj) if j<i.

Conclusions
Based on the above reasoning and calculation examples, we can conclude that
the use of the successive approximations method in solving the Sophie Germain
equation can be successfully used to determine displacements in plates supported
by longitudinal and transverse edges. This method has the advantage of
considering the features of the plate and eliminating the need for a detailed
examination of local sections, when using engineering calculation methods [19].
At the same time, it is much simpler than, for example, the finite element method
[20] and is available for understanding by an engineer who does not have a special
mathematical background. This allows avoiding some errors related to the
convergence of the method.
