2. Resistance due to Track ProfileI. Grade ResistanceII. Curve resistance
3. Resistance due to Starting & accelerating4. Wind Resistance

Track stresses

Track stresses

Track Modulus
• Load Per Unit Length of the rail Required to Produce Unit Depression.
• Depends Upon:1. Gauge2. Type of Rail section3. Type of sleeper and density4. Type of ballast section 5. Subgrade
![Page 19: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Track stresses
1. Wheel loads2. Dynamic effect of wheel loads3. Hammer Blow4. Lateral Thrust due to Nosing Action5. Pressure Exerted by the flanges of the wheels
on sides of rails6. Stresses due to Irregularity of track7. Additional stresses on curves
![Page 20: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Hauling Capacity (H.C) &Tractive Effort (Te)
• Load handled by the locomotive• H.C is the Product of Coefficient of friction &
Weight on the driving wheels.Average value of Coefficient of friction= (1/6)

Buckling of Track Due to Temperature stresses
![Page 23: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Stresses in Rail
• Longitudinal Stresses due to Tractive Effort & Braking Forces.
• Thermal stresses• Due irregularity there will be heavy impact on
the rails.• Minimum Ultimate Tensile Strength of Rail =
72.42 kg/cm2
![Page 24: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Stresses in the Sleepers
• Stresses in sleepers depends upon:• Wheel load• Irregularities in the track• Speed• Dynamic effect of wheels on rails• Elasticity of the rail
![Page 25: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Efficiency of Fastenings• Design & Dimension of Sleeper• Strength of Sleeper• Track Modulus• Stiffness of the rail• Maintenance of track
![Page 26: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Stresses in the Ballast
Stresses in Ballast depends on:• Elastic Property of the sleeper• Degree of compaction• Nature of Ballast bed• Bigger the cess & size of sleeper, lesser the
Pressure in ballast & formation.
![Page 27: Unit 1. introduction to Railway Engineering](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061220/54bc5e894a795954598b4569/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Stresses in the Formation
• Stresses in subgrade is decreased by increasing both depth & Size of the Ballast.
• Quality & Gradation of Ballast influences ultimate pressure on formation.
