Rhomberg Sersa Rail Group (RSRG) has entered into an agreement with Balfour Beatty U.S. to acquire the Balfour Beatty Track Solutions division. The division will be rebranded as Rhomberg Sersa North ...

Mathematical models are extremely limited at modeling ballast, the gravel layer located under railway tracks. Researchers have shown that a large part of the energy introduced by a train passing is ...

More than 25,000 trains run across India every day. They carry more than 20 million passengers daily and move large ...

More than 25,000 trains run across India every day.They carry more than 20 million passengers daily and move large quantities of coal, iron ore, grains, steel, cement and other commodities across a ...

The evolution of particle breakdown in railway ballast – the crushed rock under railway tracks to absorb the weight of trains – has been modelled. Sun YiFei from the University of Wollongong led a ...

Synthetic rubber pads are solving the problem of premature degradation of railway ballast. A South Korean research team has developed a technology that reduces impact on ballast by up to 30% by ...

SNCF engineers have been using mathematical models for many years to simulate the dynamic behavior of railways. These models have not been able to take into account large portions of the track have ...
