Engineered Materials Arresting System (EMAS) is at the end of runway end safety area (RESA) to keep aircrafts safe in the circumstance of the engine failure on take-off or the inaccurate landing. The paper presents the experiences in using and constructing EMAS for military airdromes in Vietnam; the theoretical framework for the calculation of the EMAS area; based on the structure of EMAS to calculate for C27SK - one of the most common types of aircraft used by Vietnam People’s Air Force. The calculated result was used to determine the soil resistance to the aircraft landing gears by dynamic model, to investigate the ability of landing gear failure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
