NASA-TM-X-72797: Evaluation of high pressure water blast with rotating spray bar for removing paint and rubber deposits from airport runways, and review of runway slipperiness problems created by rubber contamination
Abstract: A high pressure water blast with rotating spray bar treatment for removing paint and rubber deposits from airport runways is studied. The results of the evaluation suggest that the treatment is very effective in removing ...
NASA-TN-D-6098: A Comparison of Aircraft and Ground Vehicle Stopping Performance on Dry, Wet, Flooded, Slush-, Snow-, and Ice-Covered Runways
Abstract: Comparison of aircraft and surface vehicle stopping performance under varying runway conditions.
NASA-TP-1157: Ground distance covered during airborne horizontal deceleration of an airplane
Abstract: The distance an airplane floats with respect to the ground during deceleration at constant altitude is analyzed taking into account the effects of a constant wind. By use of suitable nondimensionalizing parameters, data ...
NASA-TN-D-7132: Some loading conditions imposed by ground turning maneuvers with three jet transport airplanes
Abstract: Some loading conditions imposed during ground turning maneuvers are presented for arrival and departure operations at several airports with C-141A, 727, and DC-9 airplanes. The data presented for a total of 809 turns ...
NASA-TP-1080: Friction characteristics of three 30 X 11.5-14.5, type 8, aircraft tires with various tread groove patterns and rubber compounds
Abstract: A test program was conducted to evaluate friction performance and wear characteristics on wet runways of three 30 x 11.5-14.5, type, aircraft tires having two different tread patterns and natural rubber contents. All test ...
NACA-TR-748: Normal Pressure tests of Rectangular Plates
Abstract: Report presents the results of normal-pressure tests made of 56 rectangular plates with clamped edges and of 5 plates with freely supported edges. Pressure was applied and the center deflection and the permanent set at the ...
