Determination of dynamic ballast characteristics under transient impact loading

Determination of dynamic ballast characteristics under transient impact loading

Train-related impact loads acting on a sleeper bottom were directly measured and spectral analysis was performed to determine the dynamic characteristics of ballast layer under traffic impact loads. The results indicate that broadband vibration components act on the ballast layer, which exhibits tw...
