Behavior of turnout sleepers in a large-scale ballast box test
Abstract Turnouts are essential components of the railway infrastructure. Their sleepers change in length leading to asymmetric loading and structural discontinuities. This accelerates ballast wear and sleeper settlement creating challenges for maintaining track geometry and safety. Understanding lo...
