- Engineered materials arrestor system - Wikipedia
An engineered materials arrestor system, engineered materials arresting system (EMAS), or arrester bed[1] is a bed of engineered materials built at the end of a runway to reduce the severity of the consequences of an aircraft running off the end of a runway

Where airports lack adequate space for traditional safety areas, installation of an engineered materials arresting system (EMAS) allows for suitable energy management for the runway excursion aircraft EMAS is located beyond the far end of a runway where an aircraft is taking off or landing
- EMAS: 5 Things To Know About Engineered Materials Arresting Systems In . . .
If an aircraft is to overrun a runway, using EMAS (Engineered materials arresting systems) allows the aircraft to sink into a lightweight material, which will help the plane rapidly decelerate
- Engineered Materials Arresting System (EMAS): Enhancing Runway Safety . . .
EMAS is a safety mechanism installed at the end of airport runways, consisting of a bed of engineered materials that can crush under the weight of an aircraft This controlled deformation absorbs the aircraft’s kinetic energy, bringing it to a safe stop
- Engineered Materials Arresting System (EMAS) - SKYbrary Aviation Safety
An Engineered Materials Arresting System (EMAS) uses a specially installed surface which quickly stops any aircraft that moves onto it
- EMAS: Advantages and Challenges of Engineered Materials Arresting . . .
Engineered Materials Arresting Systems (EMAS) play a critical role in aviation safety by preventing aircraft runway overruns Designed with specialized materials that absorb kinetic energy, EMAS stops overrunning aircraft safely and efficiently
- How it works: Stopping power - AOPA
For that, there’s EMAS, or Engineered Material Arresting System EMAS is a layered surface of cement and other materials that can stop even the biggest jets in a relatively short distance
- EMAS – Knowledge and References – Taylor Francis
EMAS is defined as a bed of pre-cast blocks, consisting of FAA-approved materials, that is placed at the area after runway end threshold to decelerate an overrunning aircraft in an emergency No external energy source is required for this system since it is a passive mitigation action
