Track transition zones are discontinuities along the track structure which can potentially be
vulnerable to geometry and material deterioration causing increased maintenance costs …

This paper reports the integration of the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and the
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) techniques for the monitoring of the rail …

This paper presents the measured settlement results of full-scale testing of unreinforced and
polymer reinforced ballast railway track under laboratory conditions, using the GRAFT I …

This paper presents the measured results of full-scale testing of railway track under
laboratory conditions to examine the effect on the track stiffness when the ballast is …

This paper presents the results of a detailed investigation into the ground deformations that
occur under a railway line during the passage of a train. Four horizontal boreholes were …

In this paper, a new design method is developed for ballasted railway track foundations that
must support high-speed trains and heavy axle loads. The proposed method is intended to …

Rail transportation has evolved over a century to be relatively more efficient than ever (if not
the most) around the world. Evidenced qualitatively and quantitatively, social and …

The design of a railway track substructure requires a realistic understanding of the resilient
behavior of the underlying track foundation materials, namely, the subballast and subgrade …

Railway transportation is becoming increasingly important in many parts of the world for
mass transport of passengers and freight. This study was prompted by the industry's need to …

The type of subgrade of a railroad foundation is vital to the overall performance of the track
structure. With the train speed and tonnage increase, as well as environmental changes, the …
