Laboratory and numerical analysis for enhanced ballast performance: towards sustainable railway track pavement design

Transportes
The physical and mechanical characterization of rock materials is a crucial step for their applicability as a railway ballast layer. However, most of the standardized tests for such characterization do not have direct application for the ballast layer ...

Degradation of granulite and charnockite aggregates under simulated train loading: Morphological and mechanical insights for railway ballast

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
The performance of railway ballast strongly depends on the mineralogical and morphological characteristics of the aggregates. However, little is known about the behavior of regional rocks in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, under manipulation caused by railway ...

Predicting coarse aggregate performance using the micro-Deval test with strength and intrinsic particle property tests

, 2005
Numerous tests exist in the field of aggregate qualification which have little to no relation to field performance. Many aggregate sources have been restricted in their use due to non-conforming results from a test that has little relation to field ...
