Research related to vibrations from high speed railway traffic
We discuss here recent results from several research programmes related to dynamic aspects and vibrations induced by high speed railway traffic, developed at the computational mechanics group, within the “Escuela de Ingenieros de Caminos” of the ...

Steady-states modelling of railways : ballast behaviour and ballast wear
Le développement récent du transport ferroviaire a conduit à une forte augmentation du trafic durant la dernière décennie, augmentation qui devrait sepoursuivre dans la décennie à venir avec les futurs développements de ce mode de transport. L'augmentation du trafic se traduit pour l'infrastructure par une augmentation des sollicitations subies par les

Determination of Substructure and Sub-ballast Layer Thickness of High-Speed Railway
The thickness of trackbed layers plays a crucial role in distributing train loads to ensure that stresses on the sub-ballast and substructure remain within acceptable limits. Vietnam is currently studying the construction of a high-speed railway (HSR) on

Finite Element Method for Improving Soft Soil Underneath a Ballast Railway Track
It is always recommended to improve the properties of the soft soil beneath the railway networks often in such cases to increase its ability in bearing different applied loads and to control the expected generated settlements.

Discrete element modelling of railway ballast [PDF]
Discrete element modelling has been used to capture the essential mechanical features of railway ballast and gain a better understanding of the mechanical behaviour and mechanisms of degradation under monotonic and cyclic loading. A simple procedure has been developed to generate clumps which resemble real ballast particles.
