Runway Operability under Cold Weather Conditions. Tire-pavement friction creation by sand particles on iced pavements, and non-contacting detection of sand particles on pavements

Airports that operate under cold weather conditions face major challenges in ensuring that runways, taxiways and aprons provide sufficient tire-pavement friction to the operating aircraft. This thesis is motivated by two practical problems: (1) maintaining or improving the pavement surface condition...
