Railroad track consists of relatively simple structures such as rail, sleeper, ballast. Roadbed shares vertical pressure by train load which passed through rail to ballast as base that supports the track. For evaluating stress and displacement of roadbed due to the railroad load is an important role on the track as a basic data for estimation of the durability and design of the roadbed thickness. GEOTRACK program applied multi-layered theory was developed for analyzing railroad track structure. GEOTRACK program is a sort of numerical analysis program which has advantage that can analysis component of track by simple method. In this study, this program was used to preform the numerical analysis by changing track conditions and roadbed conditions such as tie, reinforced roadbed, dynamic wheel load, Resilient modulus and so on. Further detail will be presented on the paper.

In the trackbed design using elastic multi-layer model, the stress-dependent resilient modulus is an important input parameter, which reflects substructure performance under repeated traffic loading. The resilient moduli of crushed stone and weathered granite soil were developed using nonlinear dynamic stiffness, which can be measured by in-situ and laboratory seismic tests. The prediction models of resilient modulus varying with the deviatoric or bulk stress were proposed (Park et al., 2008). To investigate the performance of the prediction models proposed herein, the elastic response of the test trackbed near PyeongTaek, Korea was evaluated using a 3-D nonlinear elastic computer program (GEOTRACK) and compared with measured elastic vertical displacement during the passages of freight and passenger trains. The material types of the test sub-ballasts are crushed stone and weathered granite soil, respectively. The calculated vertical displacements within the sub-ballasts are within the order of 1mm, and agree well with measured values with the reasonable margin. The prediction models are thus concluded to work properly in the preliminary investigation. The prediction models proposed for resilient modulus were verified by the comparison of the calculated vertical displacements with measured ones during train passages.

In the trackbed design using an elastic multi-layer model, the stress-dependent resilient modulus is the key input parameter, which reflects substructure performance under repeated traffic loading. The prediction models of resilient modulus of crushed stone and weathered granite soil were developed from nonlinear dynamic stiffness, which can be combined by in-situ and laboratory seismic measurements. The models accommodate the variation with the deviatoric and/or bulk stresses. To investigate the performance of the prediction models proposed, the elastic response of the test trackbed near PyeongTaek, Korea was evaluated using a 3-D nonlinear elastic computer program (GEOTRACK) and compared with measured elastic vertical displacement caused by the passages of freight and passenger trains. The material types of the test sub-ballasts are crushed stone and weathered granite soil, respectively. The calculated vertical displacements within the sub-ballasts are within the order of 1mm, and agree well with measured values with the reasonable margin. The prediction models are thus concluded to work properly in the preliminary investigation.

This study focused on the resilient modulus prediction model, which is the functions of mean effective principal stress and axial strain, for three types of railroad trackbed materials such as crushed stone, weathered soil, and crushed-rock soil mixture. The model is composed with the maximum Young's modulus and nonlinear values for higher strain in parallel with dynamic shear modulus. The maximum values is modeled by model parameters, $A_E$ and the power of mean effective principal stress, $n_E$. The nonlinear portion is represented by modified hyperbolic model, with the model parameters of reference strain, ${\varepsilon}_r$ and curvature coefficient, a. To assess the performance of the prediction models proposed herein, the elastic response of a test trackbed near PyeongTaek, Korea was evaluated using a 3-D nonlinear elastic computer program (GEOTRACK) and compared with measured elastic vertical displacement during the passages of freight and passenger trains. The material types of sub-ballasts are crushed stone and weathered granite soil, respectively. The calculated vertical displacements within the sub-ballasts are within the order of 0.6mm, and agree well with measured values with the reasonable margin. The prediction models are thus concluded to work properly in the preliminary investigation.

본 연구에서는 국내 철도 토공노반 재료로 가장 흔히 사용되는 입도조정쇄석, 화강풍화토, 암버럭-토사 혼합 재료에 대해 평균유효주응력과 축변형률의 함수로 표현되는 회복탄성계수 예측모델을 결정하였다. 회복탄성계수 예측모델은 대표적인 동적물성치인 변형률에 따른 전단탄성계수 감소곡선의 표현과 같이 최대영탄성계수와 정규화 영탄성계수 감소곡선으로 구성된다. 평균유효주응력의 함수로 표현되는 최대영탄성계수의 모델인자는 $A_E$와 $n_E$이고, 비선형 영역의 정규화 영탄성계수 감소곡선은 기준변형률(${\varepsilon}_r$)과 곡률계수(a)를 모델인자로 하는 수정 쌍곡선 모델로 표현된다. 제안된 회복탄성계수 예측모델을 검증하기 위해 3차원 다층탄성해석 프로그램(GEOTRACK)을 이용하여 평택 시험 철도노반의 탄성거동을 평가하였고, 화물열차 및 여객열차가 시험구간을 통과할 때 계측한 노반의 수직 탄성변위와 비교하였다. 현장계측은 자갈도상 아래의 재료가 각각 입도조정쇄석과 양질의 화강풍화토인 두 개소에서 수행되었다. 자갈도상 아래에서 계산된 수직 탄성변위는 대략 0.6mm 이내였고 계측 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 본 연구를 통해 제안된 회복탄성계수 예측모델이 열차하중에 의한 노반의 탄성거동을 적절히 표현하고 있음을 확인하였다.
