Abstract

This paper discusses the dynamical behavior of a randomly-fluctuating heterogeneous continuum model of the ballast. The Young’s modulus is modeled as a random field parameterized by its average, its variance and a correlation model representing non-interpenetrating spheres. A numerical model of the ballast and the surrounding soil is then constructed based on an efficient implementation of an explicit spectral element solver on a large cluster of computers. This model allows to describe numerically the wave field generated in the ballast and soil by the passage of a train, as well as to construct dispersion equations for the ballast-soil model. The influence of heterogeneity is discussed by comparison with a similar model where the ballast is assumed homogeneous. Different values of the soil mechanical parameters are considered and compared. Finally, potential consequences for the design of the ballast are discussed.
