Stress distribution in roadbeds of slab tracks with longitudinal discontinuities
Abstract Stress concentration occurs in the foundations of railway tracks where discontinuous components are located. The exacerbated stress under the expansion joints in slab tracks may trigger foundation failures such as mud pumping. Although the higher stress due to the discontinuities of track s...
