  • Description: In the case o seismic impact on rail infrastructure, even small deformations or damage to track structure can compromise safe operation of rail traffic. Damage can affect track substructure or permanent way of the track, but also the electrification system and safety-signalling devices. Ballast prism will suffer damage in case of greater intensity earthquakes, resulting in the reduction of lateral and longitudinal resistance of track structure. Earthquake action may also cause derailment of moving rail vehicles. Operation of rail vehicles also causes certain levels of vibrations, and so an analysis of subsequent effects of rail traffic.
