[ 1 ] - Investigation of the Influences of Track Superstructure Parameters on Ballasted Railway Track Design

The main design criteria of ballasted railway tracks include rail deflections, rail bending stresses, rail wheel contact stresses, sleeper bending moments and ballast sleeper contact pressures. Numerous criteria have been defined for the design of ballasted railway tracks owing to the various mechanical properties of track components and their complex interaction. Therefore, railway track desig...

[ 2 ] - Influences of Railway Track Geometry Parameters on Ground-Borne Vibration

One of the most important challenges in the development of urban railways network is the effects of railway vibrations on human and adjacent structures. Although various investigations into the sources of railway vibrations have been conducted, very few research works have been reported on the influences of track geometry parameters on the level of vibrations. This is addressed in this resea...

[ 3 ] - توسعه الگوریتم اولویت بندی و برنامه ریزی برای نگهداری وتعمیرات خطوط راه آهن ایران

Development of an optimized strategy for the maintenance of Iranian railway track maintenance in a form of management system was made in this research. Through reviewing the current maintenance management system in the USA, Europe and Asia as well as investigating the characteristics of railway structure and current maintenance approaches in Iran, a new algorithm was made in order to improve ef...

[ 4 ] - Influences of Track Structure, Geometry and Traffic Parameters on Railway Deterioration

The roles of the several parameters that influences railway track deterioration most, are examined in this research with a view to make railway track maintenance more effective and cost efficient. The results presented are based on a comprehensive study of railway track degradation on super structure, sub-structure and geometrical aspects. The changes in TQI (Track Quality Index), the track set...
