Nonlinear dynamic responses of ballasted railway tracks using concrete sleepers incorporated with reinforced fibres and pre-treated crumb rubber

Damages on railway sleepers due to heavy impact loads induced by the movement of trains can be reduced by improving their impact resistance. Fibre-reinforced/pre-treated crumb rubber concrete sleepers (RCSs) have the potential to display significant impact resistance to withstand a high-magnitude im...
