Nonlinear Static Stiffness of Rail Pads for Different Materials and Thicknesses using Finite Element Method
The rail pad located in between the steel rail and base plate provides flexibility to the track and cushions from shocks and vibrations resulting from train operation. This polymeric material has nonlinear behaviour. In this study, the behaviour of the rail pad for different polymeric materials and...
