LEAPS
Multilayer elastic theory with point, line and circular loads, interfaces from bonded to frictionless, and live stress bulbs.
Which units will you work in?
Every input and every result is reported in the system you pick. You can change it later from the toolbar.

Depth profiles by field
Fixed
Maxima across every evaluated load station. Tension positive.
The engine
Multilayer elastic analysis of pavement stresses, strains and displacements.
Three idealizations
Choose a point, line or circular load. Switching keeps the total force constant.
Conventions
Tension-positive stresses, z downward, deflection positive down, engineering shear strains, interfaces on a WinJULEA slip value. SI or English display, mm·N·MPa internally.
