Abstract
To elucidate the fatigue damage evolution of solar road panels under long-term loading and enhance their structural durability, this study develops a particle-based discrete element model and simulates fatigue responses under different structural configurations and loading rates. A strength degradation index was established by introducing peak stress and terminal stress, enabling quantitative evaluation of strength deterioration. Combined with fracture evolution, the dominant mesoscopic damage mechanisms were revealed. The results indicate that structural configuration strongly influences fatigue performance, with square panels showing the best resistance due to geometric symmetry and stable boundary constraints. Loading rate regulates damage evolution: lower rates promote structural coordination but may delay cumulative failure, while higher rates suppress overall deformation yet increase localized fracture risk. Based on these findings, a nonlinear predictive model of the strength degradation rate was constructed (R2 = 0.935), offering reliable support for structural life prediction and design optimization. Finally, fatigue-resistant design strategies are proposed, including optimal structural configuration, controlled loading rates, bonding enhancement, and integration of online monitoring—providing both theoretical and technical guidance for high-performance, long-lifespan solar road systems.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
