Transition Zone between Ballastless and Ballasted Track: Influence of Changing Stiffness on Acting Forces
Abstract The track's ballasted superstructure is a multilayered construction consisting of several constitutive layers. In the slab track for High-Speed Lines, or the embedded track for terminal port stations, a concrete slab replaced the ballast....

Dynamic network loading: a stochastic differentiable model that derives link state distributions
Abstract We present a dynamic network loading model that yields queue length distributions, accounts for spillbacks, and maintains a differentiable mapping from the dynamic demand on the dynamic queue lengths. The model also captures the spatial...

User and service equilibrium in a structural model of traffic assignment to a transit network
Abstract A structural model is provided for traffic assignment to a transit model. It deals with a hierarchy of layers from passenger to network passing by vehicle, service route and line, while taking advantage of the spatial structure of service...

Effect of Aggregate Gradation on Rutting of Asphalt Pavements
Abstract Permanent deformation (i.e. rutting) of asphalt pavements is one of major types of distress modes experienced in the service life of pavements. Aggregates are one of the key building materials used in the construction industry and the...
