Design loads on railway substructure-comparative parametric investigation on the influence of fastening stiffness (European and Japanese)
(2012)The existing international bibliography-German, French, AREMA methods- includes various methods for a realistic estimation of loads on track superstructure and the reactions/actions on the sleepers. The magnitude of loads ... -
Influence of rail pad stiffness on track stressing, life-cycle and noise emission
(2010)In this paper the results for the influence of the rail pad stiffness on the Railway Track stressing and its Life-Cycle is presented, as derived from a research program performed in Greece due to the appearance of extended ... -
Reduced service life of concrete sleepers due to inadequate design
(2010)During the 1980's, the twin-block concrete sleepers/ties -designed and laid in railway lines with maximum operational speed of 200 km/h in France- which were laid on a track with maximum operational speed of 140 km/h in ...
