The unavoidable increase in train speed and load, as well as the aging of railway facilities,
is requiring more and more attention to rail defects detection. As a promising tool for rail, in-…

This paper presents the experimental observations and results of six full-scale field ballast-less
track structure specimens, and tested under longitudinal and transverse shear load. The …

China and Germany are countries with a lot of experience in the construction of high-speed
railway (HSR) bridges. Standardized design and construction of railway bridges has …

This work provides a comprehensive review of the development and applications of bridge
rotation construction methods (BRMs) and related critical construction technologies in China. …

Due to the atmospheric temperature and solar radiation, the effects of temperature variation
in bridge structures should be considered. Such variation induces notable deformations and …

In this paper, an analytical algorithm, based on the bilinear resistance model, was proposed
to analyze the track-bridge interaction on long-span steel bridges under thermal action. …

China railways track structure II (CRTS II) slab ballastless track on bridge is one kind of track
structures unique to China. Its main bearing component of longitudinal force is the …

This paper presents a theoretical solution for bond-slip behavior of SRC interface based on
experiment, numerical simulation, and theoretical derivation. Push-out tests of five …

Atmospheric temperature and directed solar radiation have a significant effect on the
temperature field of high-speed railway (HSR) concrete bridge and ballastless track structure. …

The non-Gaussian property of turbulence has been emphasized in some measured wind
data. However, the classic Scanlan buffeting theory with the Gaussian distribution assumption …
