The results of measurements on a track structure model in a 1:1 scale performed in a testing box will be verified by means of a numerical model. A two-dimensional solution will be subsequently verified by means of a spatial model. Numerical modelling will serve for transferring the values measured on the experimental model into a current railway track structure. ER
