Guo, Y. (author), Golchin, A. (author), Hicks, M.A. (author), Liu, Songyu (author), Zhang, Guozhu (author), Vardon, P.J. (author)The effect of temperature on the monotonic and cyclic shearing response of a soil–structure interface is of critical importance for the application of thermal-active geo-structures.

Jia, W. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Guo, Y. (author)The railway ballast layer provides the function of bearing loading, resisting geometry degradation, and drainage. In those related research, the behaviour of ballast assembly can be obtained by laboratory (or in-situ) tests. Limited simulation methods can be used to analyse the behaviour of ballast particles at the mesoscopic level. The...journal article 2023

Golchin, A. (author), Guo, Y. (author), Vardon, P.J. (author), Liu, S. (author), Zhang, G. (author), Hicks, M.A. (author)The coupling effect of initial shear stress and thermal cycles on the thermomechanical behaviour of clay concrete and sand-concrete interfaces has been studied. A set of drained monotonic direct shear tests was conducted at the soil-concrete interface level. Samples were initially sheared to half of the material's shear strength and then they...journal article 2023

Niu, Liubin (author), Yang, Fei (author), Deng, Xiangyun (author), Zhang, P. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author), Qiang, Weile (author), Guo, Y. (author)In practice, the assessment and treatment of rail corrugation are quantitatively based on the corrugation depth. Wheel–rail vertical forces (WRVF), as a direct reflection of wheel–rail interaction, can give expression to the corrugation depth and thus serve as a key parameter for assessing the corrugation. In this paper, we propose an...journal article 2023

Jia, W. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Goncalves Carvalho, M.D. (author), Connolly, David P. (author), Guo, Y. (author)Differential railway track settlement can result in ballast voids, leading to sleepers that hang from the rail and are no longer supported by the ballast. These hanging sleepers are damage for track component. As a solution, this paper proposes and investigates a new concept sleeper with a wedge-shaped geometry, intended to stimulate the...journal article 2023

Guo, Y. (author), Xie, Jiale (author), Fan, Zheng (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Connolly, David P. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author)The properties of railway ballast material are affected by the local geologies and climatic environments from which the parent rock is sourced. These factors can make it challenging to select the most appropriate material for railway applications. To address this issue, this paper first reviews the means of ballast selection in complex...review 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Shi, Can (author), Zhao, Chunfa (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author)Crumb rubber (CR) has been proposed to apply in the ballast or sub-ballast layer for ballast degradation mitigation and vibration (noise) reduction. The CR can change the ballast layer stiffness, which can affect the train-track-subgrade dynamic performance and cause travel comfort and safety issues. Towards this, this study aims at...journal article 2022

Liu, Guixian (author), Peng, Zhan (author), Jing, Guoqing (author), Wang, Shilei (author), Li, Yaonan (author), Guo, Y. (author)Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a popular technology for inspecting railway ballast layer, mainly on the ballast fouling level. However, different GPR antennas with different frequencies are suitable for different inspection emphasis and diverse railway lines (weather and sub-structure). In addition, the full-scale track model (with...journal article 2022

Wang, Shilei (author), Liu, Guixian (author), Jing, Guoqing (author), Feng, Qiankuan (author), Liu, Hengbai (author), Guo, Y. (author)In the past 20 years, many studies have been performed on ballast layer inspection and condition evaluation with ground penetrating radar (GPR). GPR is a non-destructive means that can reflect the ballast layer condition (fouling, moisture) by analysing the received signal variation. Even though GPR detection/inspection for ballast layers has...review 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author), Markine, V.L. (author)Railway ballast is normally made of crushed rocks with grading (particle size distributions). Ballast is inevitably suffering from more rapid degradation. Because ballast keeps undergoing and dissipating most of the train loadings, furthermore, the train speed and freight weight are increasing, causing more intensive loadings to ballast. To...book chapter 2022
