Road pavement defect investigation using treated and untreated expansive road subgrade materials with varying plasticity index

open access: yes, 2022
Road pavement defect has been a major issue in the construction industry leading to a high cost of maintenance and sometimes a total reconstruction of the road. Expansive road subgrade materials are one of the major causes of these road defects.

Study on Deformation Characteristics of Low-Highway Subgrade under Traffic Load

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Highway subgrade bears millions of traffic loads over the years, and its strength, stiffness, and long-term stability gradually decline. In this paper, dynamic triaxial tests were carried out to study the time evolution and spatial distribution of strain

Effects of Differential Subgrade Settlement on Slab Track Deformation Based on a DEM-FDM Coupled Approach

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Slab track structures become deformed under the effects of differential subgrade settlement. According to the properties of the China Railway Track System (CRTS) II slab track on a subgrade, a three-dimensional (3D) coupled model based on both the ...

EVALUATION OF VARIABILITY IN SUBGRADE LOADS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2003
The paper presents an analysis of variability in vertical stresses in the sleeper base. The research deals with the stresses caused by the track load by an ET 22 locomotive depending on the manner of pressure transfer by sleepers. Four schemes of force distribution under sleepers are being analysed.

Investigation of Water and Soil Migration and Mud Pumping of Subgrades under Traffic Load

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Atmospheric precipitation leads to the increase of moisture in the subgrade. The moisture and soil migration in subgrade is a key scientific problem in evaluating the service performance of the subgrade and resolving or preventing mud pumping.
