Finite element modelling of airfield concrete pavement

Abstract

Finite element modelling of airfield concrete pavement can be provided in program LIRA-SAPR. Sample numerical computations were performed using the introduced finite element model in program LIRA-SAPR. Numerical solutions were compared to other solutions using FEAFAA software. Finite element model of multi-slab jointed concrete pavement for program LIRA-SAPR allows analyzing pavement with or without separator layer and under impact of modern aircrafts all main landing gears.
