RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Krejcirikova, Hana Hana A1 Lidmila, Martin T1 Experimental and mathematical analysis of a multi-layer system of railway track JF Communications - Scientific Letters of the University of Zilina YR 2004 VO 6 IS 3 SP 44 OP 46 DO 10.26552/com.C.2004.3.44-46 UL https://komunikacie.uniza.sk/artkey/csl-200403-0008.php AB Based on experimental measurement of a model of a multi-layer non-linear system with inserted geosynthetic layers of the permanent way structure, a new design method will be designed for dimensioning the sleeper subgrade structure using classical and geosynthetic materials or sub-ballast vibration-damping matting. 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.
