A rational analysis of pavement structures, foundations and land locomotion problems is based upon the application of continuum theories of behavior of pavements and/or soil systems. The objective of a rational analysis is the development of numerical data which will accurately predict the performance of a particular engineering structure. In the analysis of pavements this objective would be accomplished if the rational analysis accurately predicted the stress and displacements in a pavement system subjected to a known pattern of vehicle loading. One of the features required in a rational analysis of pavement structures is the description of surface conditions imposed by vehicle traffic. In particular, attention is directed to the lateral restraints imposed on the surface by a tire. This report treats the problem of an elastic half-space. The surface loads are normal to the surface, uniform in magnitude and distributed over a circular area. Furthermore, the applied loading adheres to the surface. (BPR abstract)
