[EN] Railways are a rather efficient transport mean, and yet there is increasing interest in reducing their energy consumption and making them more sustainable in the current context of climate change. Many studies try to ...

[EN] Over the last years rubber from scrap tyres has been reused in different civil works such as road embankments and railway platforms due to its resilient properties, low degradation and vibration attenuation. Unfortunately, ...

[EN] Scrap tyres are a problematic waste material. As a method for recycling large quantities of rubber from scrap tyres, this paper analyses the use of unbound granular mixtures with varying percentages of rubber particles ...

[EN] In many high-speed railway lines, the zones between embankments and structures may present some discontinuities, in terms of track geometry and track stiffness, which may create discomfort for passengers, induce ...

The use of continuous welded rail (CWR) track has solved many of the problems associated with tread surface discontinuities that occur in jointed tracks. However, due to the longitudinal expansion of the rails in CWR tracks ...

[EN] This thesis makes a comparative analysis between slab track and ballasted track. The common part consists of geotechnical, topographical, plotted, receipt of track and axle exchanger annexes. The study focuses on ...

"Technical and socio-economic comparative analysis between the constituent sections of the line Madrid-Galicia and corresponding to the AVE line Valencia-Castellón, considering the global system as a whole." This Final ...

[ES] La región de América Latina ha tenido un fuerte crecimiento poblacional en las últimas décadas con una concentración a la par en núcleos urbanos, generando ciudades de gran tamaño. Junto a esos procesos demográficos, ...

El laboratorio virtual muestra las velocidades máxima, mínima y teórica de paso por curva de un tren, para un determinado ancho de vía y radio de curva, y en función del peralte real. La velocidad teórica de paso es aquella ...
