Abstract

A comparative analysis using the programme ANSYS (FEM) deals with the  generation of the computation model and with the assessment of the influence of the geogrids and the vertical lime-cement columns on the bearing capacity and deformation of the railway embankment on the less load-bearing subsoil. The graphic outputs give an overview of the field layout of equivalent stresses and deformation in the construction of the railway substructure.
