Abstract: Slab tracks are used worldwide in high-speed railways. The slab may be cast in situ, resulting in a continuous length of concrete, or it may be constructed in discrete precast sections laid end to end. According to structural ...

Abstract: This review article deals with some recent investigations in China in coupling boundary elements (BEs) with finite elements (FEs) during the last decade. Two types of combination schemes are ...

Abstract: To predict the environmental vibration caused by high-speed railways, a prediction method combining actual measurement and simulation is proposed based on the vibration prediction formula proposed by Federal Transportation ...

Abstract: At present, the method of model testing is rarely used to study the low-frequency vibration problems of bridge structures, because it is difficult to keep the similarity between the bridge model and the prototype in model ...

Abstract: Defects at the interface between the slab track and the cement asphalt (CA) mortar layer can have significant effects on the dynamic response of a vehicle-track system. This paper proposes a method for analyzing the ...
