DEM Analysis of Track Ballast for Track Ballast–Wheel Interaction Simulation
This study aims to suggest a rational analysis method for a track ballast–wheel interaction that could be further developed to model the interaction in a train-derailment event, based on the discrete-element method (DEM). Track ballast is filled with gravel to form the trackbed. Although finite-elem...
