Aerodynamic Characteristics of Individual Ballast Particle by Wind Tunnel Tests

Ballast flying has been considered as a problem in train aerodynamics with increasing the maximal speed. And this phenomenon seriously threats the safety of train operation. However, aerodynamic characteristics of individual ballast were less studied in the previous literature. This paper describe...
