Geogrids are commonly used in railway construction for reinforcement and stabilisation.
When railway ballast becomes fouled due to ballast breakage, infiltration of coal fines, dust …

The interface shear strength properties of geogrid-reinforced construction and demolition
(C&D) aggregates were determined using a modified large scale direct shear test (DST) …

Ballast being an unbounded granular medium spreads laterally when subjected to high-
frequency cyclic loading. To reduce lateral movement of ballast and to optimize track …

This paper presents results from laboratory direct shear tests and discrete element method
(DEM) simulations of railway ballast mixed with different contents of tire derived aggregate …

The violent vibration and excessive settlement of trackbeds under high-speed train moving
loads are the main problems of ballasted tracks encountered in practice, which limits the rise …

Both intra-pore hydrate morphology and inter-pore hydrate distribution influence the
physical properties of hydrate-bearing sediments, yet there has been no pore-scale …

The rail network plays an essential role in transport infrastructure worldwide. A ballasted
track is commonly used for several reasons, including economic considerations, load …

Individual ballast particle movement significantly affects ballast performance. In order to
improve ballast performance, geogrids are widely used to create interlocking of ballast …

Particle shape properties can significantly affect the load response behavior and field
performance of the uniformly graded ballast layer in railway track structures. Particle contact …

It has recently been reported that under sleeper pads (USPs) could improve ballasted rail
track by decreasing the sleeper settlement and reducing particle breakage. In order to find …
