A Numerical Study of Railway Ballast Subjected to Direct Shearing Using the Discrete Element Method
Railway ballast is a coarse granular material used to carry train loads and provide drainage for the rail tracks. This study presents numerical explorations of the mechanical performance of ballast aggregates subjected to direct shear tests. The discrete element method (DEM) was used to investigate...
