Shear resistance improvement of oil-contaminated ballast layer with rubber shred inclusions [PDF]
Railway ballast, which form an integral part of rail tracks, is highly susceptible to subsistence due to both vibration transmitted by the passing trains, as well as the breakage of ballasts with repeated impact.

On the Importance of Displacement History in Soft-Body Contact Models [PDF]
Two approaches are commonly used for handling frictional contact within the framework of the discrete element method (DEM). One relies on the complementarity method (CM) to enforce a nonpenetration condition and the Coulomb dry-friction model at the ...
