The double jaw crusher is designed for crushing hard materials, also quarried materials, sand and gravel, and recycling. [4, 5] crusher [4] The tie rod and compression spring ensure that the
Ballast stone — an important source of infrastructure construction materials Ballast is the granular material usually crushed stones, crushed bricks, shingle,
Basalt is an igneous rock that formed from the solidification and cooling of molten rock material (lava or magma). Basalt is typically a dense dark rock colored blue, greyblue,
Ballast is a granular material which is placed and packed below and around the railway sleepers. Different types of ballast materials used are broken stone, sand, gravel, moorum, brickbats etc. It is obtained by crushing

3. DEM breakable model3.1. PFC, the materialmodeling support and its improvements. In this paper, the singleparticle crushing test for the ballast stones is simulated by the DEM software PFC, which was first proposed by Cundall and Strack and further developed by Itasca,.The materialmodeling support of PFC is used and
The paper describes employment of DEM to simulate railway ballast. Ballast grains are represented by randomlyshaped polyhedral particles generated via Voronoi tessellation. Novel algorithm to compute contact force based on the intersecting volume is presented. Crushing is included via splitting the particles.
1. Introduction. Rockfill materials are widely used in geotechnical structures and undergo rapid or sudden deformation without any changes in the applied load when immersed in water .After rockfill materials are immersed in water, the reduction of the particle strength and the lubrication effect of water facilitate the sliding, rearrangement
This paper can contribute to progress in (1) improving ballast specifications in China, (2) developing new ballast materials, (3) saving resources and costs by adapting different railways to local
reflecting the performance of different ballast materials in the railway trackbed. In this research, extensive laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the correlation One of the current ballast tests, namely the Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) test, which is analogous to the oedometer test, is not appropriate because the ACV test
Crushed stone aggregates are produced by crushing quarried rock, then screening it to sizes appropriate for the intended use. Production of crushed stone has three stages: Primary crushing to break down the
extent for crushing different materials [4]. The main shaft is a circular rod made up of mild steel and round thick plate is used as a crank Which is in turn attached to the piston rod and the piston. A rectangular bin of mild steel is constructed to withstand the high crushing force that the piston exerts on the bin

2. Ballast material Ballast is the main structural part of railroad where the sleepers (or ties in US) are laid. Its main function is to transfer the loads coming from the super structure to the subgrade without failure and providing good drainage. Different types of materials used for ballast construction
Our ballast material is utilized in the maintenance of TRAX and rail lines across Northern Utah. Our quartzite quarry, located on Stansbury Island, provides the ideal material to be utilized as Railroad Ballast. Crushing
Particle shape, angularity, and surface texture most notably affect the mass shear strength of the ballast material, although it has been noted Ballast deformation can be due to settlement and particle rearrangement, ballast

In this research, extensive laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the correlation One of the current ballast tests, namely the Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) test, which is analogous to the oedometer test, is not appropriate because the ACV test
Traditional ballasted tracks have been used intensively around the world with ballast as the main material for tracks. Ballast has a significant contribution to the track alignment, stability and sustainability. After service, ballast deforms and degrades. Periodic ballast maintenance is needed which is a time and cost expensive activity.
Crushed stone aggregates are produced by crushing quarried rock, then screening it to sizes appropriate for the intended use. Production of crushed stone has three stages: Primary crushing to break down the
2.1 MATERIALS .1 The ballast shall be composed of hard, dense, of an angular particle structure providing sharp corners and cubical fragments and minimal deleterious materials, such as but not limited to clay, shale, dust or elongated pieces. The ballast shall provide high resistance to temperature changes, chemical attack,
It is important to have consistent ballast testing methods that provide results reflecting the performance of different ballast materials in the railway trackbed. In this research, extensive laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the correlation between simple ballast index tests, and box tests simulating ballast field loading conditions in a simplified and
Basalt is an igneous rock that formed from the solidification and cooling of molten rock material (lava or magma). Basalt is typically a dense dark rock colored blue, greyblue, darkgrey or black with a finegrained texture. Crushed basalt is used for a wide variety of purposes. It is most commonly crushed for use as an aggregate in
