Introduction
• Work carried out for SATEBA within framework of the new Eurostar
train track construction below London city.
• Simple prediction tool based on 2D model to predict the performance
of track-work
• Determination of sleeper pads dynamic stiffness corresponding to
specific mitigation levels
• Development of experimental rig on a full width section of track to
measure the dynamic stiffness of sleeper pads

Experimental Test Rig - Blocking Force Measurement
• Blocking force measured with 3
force transducersFblocking = F1 + F2 + F3
• Total blocking force corrected by
the inertial forceFtotal blocking = Fblocking + Finertial
= Fblocking + m2 (2f)2 u2

Experimental Test Rig - Stiffness Characterization
• Requirements :
Decoupling 20 log10(u1 /u2 ) 15 dB
Inertial force correction < 10%
Displacement difference between rails head < 15%
• Dynamic stiffness calculation of sleeper pads
Krear = Ftotal blocking / u1 rear rail
Kfront = Ftotal blocking / u1 front rail
Kpads = (Krear + Kfront ) / 2 and Kpad = Kpads / 2

Limitations of Experimental Test Rig
• Vibration levels on laboratory floor were negligible
• Horizontal velocity of both rails and both sleeper blocks found negligible
• Static and dynamic force distribution between rear and front was good
• Blocking mass m2 presented modal behavior around 100, 125 and
156 Hz.
• Inertial force correction ≈ 20 % at 63 Hz : above requirements
Measurements valid at 8, 16 and 31.5 Hz

Concluding Comments
• Simple prediction tool was presented and used to define sleeper pads
dynamic stiffness corresponding to specific mitigation levels
• Experimental rig to characterize sleeper pads dynamic stiffness was
described and its limitations discussed
• Measurements were performed for different sleeper pads under
different vertical and horizontal static loads
