A theory of quantifying the effect of jet blasts from aircrafts on temperature of the surface course of asphalt-concrete airfield pavement.

Abstract

This document has attempted to theoretically justify the need to take into account the increase in the pavement temperature of the concrete asphalt airfield, when there is a repeated effect produced by jets of aircraft on the surface of the pavement, in the stability calculations thermodynamics of the course of the surface; not only in cases where the jet velocity of the jet is equal to or greater than 100 m/s, but also in the other operating conditions. It will reduce the risks of plastic deformation, possible jet erosion and potholes, even at the design stage, and apply asphalt mixtures with specific properties for the course of the pavement surface.
