Abstract

The impact of airplane landings on runway structures is directly related to aviation safety and runway service life. The current study primarily employs a simplified treatment for the collision of an airplane landing on a runway, and the simulation accuracy is inadequate. For this reason, this study applies the master-slave contact search technique to contact and collision problems using a nonlinear finite element multi-object dynamic model, and explores the influence on runway structure and ultimate bearing capacity by modeling aircraft landings with varied loads. The findings show that when the landing gear load capacity exceeds 350 t, the runway concrete layer experiences considerable damage and shear fractures.
