Description

Mechanics of Ballasted Rail Tracks: A Geotechnical Perspective by CRC Press provides comprehensive coverage of ballast testing, examining strength, deformation and degradation of both fresh and recycled ballast under monotonic and cyclic loading conditions. The book investigates how geosynthetics enhance the stabilisation of recycled ballast materials and introduces a new stress-strain constitutive model that accounts for particle breakage in ballast systems. A key contribution is the development of optimised particle gradations that balance critical strength and permeability requirements for modern rail track design. This reference text serves final year civil engineering students and postgraduate researchers seeking in-depth knowledge of rail infrastructure geotechnics and ballast material behaviour.

Key Features

Covers comprehensive testing protocols for ballast materials including strength evaluation, deformation analysis and degradation measurement under various loading conditions.

Examines the role of geosynthetics in stabilising recycled ballast, addressing sustainability and material reuse in rail track construction.

Presents an innovative stress-strain constitutive model for ballast that incorporates particle breakage mechanisms for improved predictive accuracy.

Proposes new particle gradations optimised to satisfy both strength performance and permeability requirements for next-generation rail tracks.

Designed as a reference resource for final year civil engineering students and postgraduate researchers in geotechnical engineering and rail infrastructure.
