Hardcover. The construction of high-speed railways includes a wide variety of aspects, ranging from safety to new types of equipment and construction solutions. All these require state-of-art technologies, and in recent years design concepts for high-speed railways have improved. The focus in this volume is on the interaction between rail track and bridges. Track-bridge interaction sets a limit to the vibration and deformability of structures, so that accelerations, stresses and track deformations are controlled, circulation safety is satisfied, and design solutions for bridges are determined. Track-Bridge Interaction on High-Speed Railways presents the latest research on the interaction between rail track and bridges, and will be invaluable to civil engineers involved in the design, construction and maintenance of high-speed railways and bridges, and to researchers and graduate and undergraduate engineering students with an interest in this field. The construction of high-speed railways entails a wide variety of aspects to be considered. They range from safety aspects to new types of equipment and construction solutions, and require state-of-the-art technologies. This volume presents the latest research on the interaction between rail track and bridges. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
