Mechanistic Design Models of Loading and Curling in Concrete Pavements
Determination of the critical bending stress at the edge of a concrete pavement due to individual and combination effects of wheel loading and thermal curling is very crucial to any mechanistic...

Finite Element Analysis of Slabs-on-Grade Using Higher Order Subgrade Soil Models
Incorporation of the two-parameter, Kerr and Zhemochkin-Sinitsyn-Shtaerman subgrade models into finite element code ILLI-SLAB is described. The two conventional idealizations, namely the...

Mathematical Modeling of Airport Pavements
Theories for analyzing rigid pavements are presented. The emphasis is on the choice of the proper models for the pavement and for the subgrade, and on the correct mathematical formulation...

Unified Constitutive Model for Airport Pavements
A unified constitutive model that allows for significant behavioral characteristics of materials and interfaces in airport pavement is implemented in a nonlinear finite element procedure....

ICAO's ACN-PCN Method and Aircraft-Pavement Interaction
Multi-wheel gear assemblies of future aircraft are not compatible with pavements rated in the ACN-PCN system given by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). The Aircraft...

Reliability-Based Analysis and Design of Flexible Airfield Pavements
This paper illustrates, a new reliability-based procedure to analyze existing pavements and design new pavements that is being developed by the U.S. Air Force. The procedure uses a rigorous...

Pavement Design Considerations for Heavy Aircraft Loading at BAA Airports
BAA operates seven airports in the United Kingdom. Two of them, Heathrow and Gatwick, handled 61 million passengers in 1991 with 543,000 air transport movements, 25% by wide-bodied aircraft....
