Numerical investigation of the behavior of approach slabs in transition zone of ballasted track to box culvert in high-speed railway lines [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2016 One of the most important issues in operation of high-speed railway tracks is avoiding to sudden variation of the track stiffness. Culverts and bridges are common areas which this problem is occurred along the railway lines.
