- Additional information
- The research in this paper was funded by the EPSRC (EP/N009207/1). It led to the development of the DART3D (Dynamic Analysis of Railway Track in Three Dimensions) computer code. DART3D simulates the dynamic coupled train-track geodynamic behaviour for high-speed trains, including critical velocity. At HS2 Ltd request, the software was used to study the HS2 track design for the Geodynamic Modelling of Track Bed and Earthworks report (email on request). The report was the subject of significant media and parliamentary scrutiny and a copy is lodged in the House of Commons Library (https://www.theyworkforyou.com/wrans/?id=2016-12-13.57381.h).
