Artificial Ballast Project: new materials for a new approach to railway infrastructure
Innovation in railway infrastructure has been developed along mutually exclusive paths either withballasted track or slab track. Until now, no intermediate solution has been investigated where thescience of materials and advanced simulation tools would allow the research, development andmanufacturing of an “artificial ballast”, as a new approach which should eventually combine theadvantages of crushed-rock or natural ballast with the controlled design, manufacturing andconstruction features that characterize slab track. This Project is funded by the SpanishAdministration within the multi-year Plan of Research, Development and Technology Innovation,2008-2011 and should be the first step toward further investigation into related matters.
