Abstract
AbstractIt is crucial for the design and operation of a high-speed railway to estimate and control the accumulative settlement of the subgrade induced by cyclic train loading. In this study, an analytical model, considering the effect of the initial stress state, is proposed to predict the accumulative settlement of high-speed railway subgrade. Dynamic load triaxial tests are conducted to determine the parameters involved in the computational model. Full-scale model experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed computational model in predicting the accumulative settlement of high-speed railway subgrade. A probabilistic analytical model is developed for a reliability-based settlement risk assessment of the subgrade by considering the uncertainties and randomness of the relevant parameters. The coefficient of variation (COV) of the dynamic stress on the subgrade surface caused by train loading is derived from field data measured on the Wuhan-Guangzhou High-Speed Railway, China. A M...
