THEORETICAL STUDY OF NATURAL FREQUENCIES AND OSCILLATION AMPLITUDES IN BALLASTLESS AND BALLASTED PERMANENT WAY

THEORETISCHE UNTERSUCHUNG DER EIGENFREQUENZEN UND SCHWINGUNGSAMPLITUDEN BEI SCHOTTERLOSEN OBERBAU KONSTRUKTIONEN UND KLASSISCHEM SCHOTTEROBERBAU

The study provides the basis for calculating the dimensions of the ballast layer and the intermediate elastic slabs. These elastic slabs replace the ballast bed for load distribution and absorbing shocks, while costing less for maintenance. The slabs can reduce the forces imposed on the track by oscillation, and thus have a favorable effect on noise, track bed stability, rail wear, and smooth running.
