In the past several decades, many lateral track buckling studies have been conducted in an effort to determine an allowable safe temperature increase for preventing the occurrence of buckling. The present analysis builds on some of these studies, but

With the adoption and use of equation EIwIV+kw=q for track analyses, various methods for the determination of k, the rail support modulus, were proposed during the past several decades. However, some of these methods are difficult to use or are of qu

In traditional railroad tracks, joint bars are being used to connect the ends of adjoining rails. Because the vertical bending stiffness of two bars is generally much lower than of the rails, the passing wheels generate larger deflections in the join
Moving Loads on Ice Plates is a unique study into the effect of vehicles and aircraft travelling across floating ice sheets. It synthesizes in a single volume, with a coherent theme and nomenclature, the diverse literature on the topic, hitherto avai

The published laccolith analyses are based on the linear plate bending theory and the a priori assumption that the width of the laccolith is fixed. This is not the case in an actual situation. The dimension of the laccolith in the horizontal plane ha

Blowups of concrete pavements have been a thorn in the sides of highway and airport engineers for years. The author of this paper conducts an assessment based on the analyses of pavement blowups. He briefly reviews the various early attempts to expla

This review article presents a survey of analyses and tests of bearing capacity of floating ice covers when subjected to (1) Static loads of short duration, (2) Static loads of long duration, (3) Moving loads, and oscillatory loads that cause ice fat

Peculiar analytical results encountered in the literature on continuously supported structures are pointed out and investigated. They are: (1) for a finite beam which rests on a Winkler foundation and. is centrally loaded by a concentrated force P, t

The increasing use of composite materials for plate-type structures intensified the need for solutions of orthotropic plates. One problem of interest is the clamped rectangular plate with reinforcing fibers parallel to the plate boundaries. There is

The main cause of concrete pavement blowups are axial compression forces induced into the pavement by a rise in temperature and moisture. Recently, Kerr and Dallis and Kerr and Shade presented analyses based on the notion that blowups are caused by l
