Rodchenko // 17th Conference of Young Scientists of Lithuania „Science – Lithuania‘s Future. TRANSPORT“, 8th of May 2014: Proceedings. – Vilnius, 2014. – Р. 32-36.978-609-457-714-72029-7157http://er.nau.edu.ua/handle/NAU/11577The State norms of Ukraine have only two values of transition factor (one value for free-edge loading case, other for joint edge) which do not allow aircraft main landing gear and number of wheels. Transition factors for calculation of edge bending moment are determined for airfield rigid pavement design. New values of transition factors account main landing gear configuration of new aircrafts. Transition factor values are obtained by using finite element modeling programs LIRA and FEAFAA.enairfield rigid pavementmain landing geardowel barjointtransition factordeflectionstrainjoint load transfer efficiencyfinite element modelingArticle
