The most important role of sleepers in a railroad system is conveyance of the train load from rail to the ballast. Since the sleepers are under complicated loading in real conditions, the first stage is static analysis of them. Future railway traffic will certainly be even faster than that of today, and at the same time the demanded load capacity of the trains will probably increase. This implies...
A third order zigzag theory based model for layered functionally graded beams in conjunction with the modified rule of mixtures (MROM) for effective modulus of elasticity is validated through experiments for static and free vibration response. Two systems, Al/SiC and Ni/Al 2 O 3 , fabricated using powder metallurgy and thermal spraying techniques respectively, are considered for the...
