Abstract: |
This paper
deals with a coupled finite-discrete element simulation of a railway sleeper.
The analysis aimed to show the trends of the stress state of a concrete
sleeper during a conventional loading in the case of a crushed stone ballast
bed. A typical discrete element analysis helps the engineers to analyze the
behavior of the bulk material. The finite element analysis assists in
examining the continuum materials. The railway tracks are complex systems,
using both of the methods need to understand the
interaction between the connected elements. The applied one-way coupled
analysis highlighted the trends of the peak stresses on a concrete sleeper
caused by the individual stones. |
