Abstract

Engineered Material Arresting System (EMAS) is a new type of soft ground arresting system that can safely arrest the overrun aircraft in an allowed distance without injuring aircraft passengers and damaging aircraft landing gear. When exposed in the outdoor, the temperature and humidity will have a great impact on the performance of EMAS core layer which is a kind of foam concrete. In this paper, dynamic test and microscopic observation were conducted to find out the effect of freezing on the EMAS core layer in different water absorption.
