Vibro-fluidization of sand under coupled static loading and high-frequency cyclic loading

An increase in the operation speed of high-speed trains often leads to an increase in the loading frequency on subgrade soil. Hence, the long-term dynamic behavior of the subgrade and the service performance of high-speed tracks are affected. To determine the stress–strain characteristics of granular soil under high-frequency loading, a triaxial test setup was modified to investigate the effects of loading acceleration and duration, water …
