Abstract: Abstract Railway ballasted tracks at transition zones from embankment sections to bridge sections (or the reverse) suffer not only from seismic motions, but also from differential settlements during seismic motions. Therefore, an attempt is made… read more here.

Abstract: The lateral displacement of sleepers is one of the key issues in railroads, which is caused by different factors such as the geometry of the ballast layer as well as the shape of the sleepers.… read more here.
