摘要

Australia relies heavily on rail for the transportation of bulk commodities andpassenger services, and has introduced faster and heavier trains in recent years due to agrowing demand. Large cyclic loading from heavy haul and passenger trains oftenleads to progressive deterioration of the track. The excessive deformations anddegradations of the ballast layer and unacceptable differential settlement or pumpingof underlying soft and compressible subgrade soils necessitate frequent costly trackmaintenance works. A proper understanding of load transfer mechanisms and theireffects on track deformations are essential prerequisites for minimising maintenancecosts. The reinforcement of the track by means of geosynthetics leads to significantreduction in the downward propagation of stresses and assures more resilient longtermperformance. The geocomposite serves the functions of reinforcement, drainageand separation, thereby reducing the vertical and lateral deformations. Stabilization ofsoft subgrade soils by using prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) is also essential forimproving the overall stability of track and to reduce the differential settlement duringthe operation of trains. The effectiveness of using geocomposite geosynthetic andPVDs has been observed through field measurements and finite element analyses.These have been the first fully instrumented, comprehensive field trials carried out inAustralian Railways, and it was very encouraging to see the field observationsmatching the numerical predictions.
