Soil Mechanics-Transient and Cyclic Loads
"The first part, Chapters 1-5, deals with the essential aspect of formulating the mechanics of transient dynamic behaviour for loading of various frequencies... Chapters 6-18 deal with the crux of the matter."--Preface.
Mechanics of Ballasted Rail Tracks
In this book, the authors discuss testing of ballast, including the strength, deformation and degradation aspects of fresh and recycled ballast under monotonic and cyclic loading. The effectiveness of geosynthetics in stabilising recycled ballast has also been examined. A new stress-strain constitutive model for ballast incorporating particle breakage is presented. Finally, a new range of particle gradations, balancing the strength and permeability requirements, has been proposed for future rail tracks. This book is intended as a reference text for final year civil engineering students and postgraduates, and for practicing railway engineers with the task of modernizing existing designs.
