  • Experimental and numerical study on the shear-strain behavior of ballast with different gradations. 
    Venuja, S.; Navaratnarajah, S. K.; Bandara, C. S.; Jayasinghe, J. A. S. C. (Springer, 2023)
    Rockfill materials are widely used in many infrastructure constructions including earth dams, rail tracks, retaining walls, highways, etc. The major role of these coarse granular materials is to ...
  • Insertion of geogrid to the ballast layer to improve rail track performance. 
    Venuja, S.; Navaratnarajah, S. K.; Bandara, C. S.; Jayasinghe, J.A.S.C. (University of Peradeniya, 2021)
    Rail transport provides assured services to commuters and freights more economically. In conventional rail tracks, rails are rested on sleepers on top of the layered substructure. The ballast layer is the prominent ...
  • A review on bamboo to use as an axially loaded column in low rise structures. 
    Jeyamohan, K.; Bandara, C. S. (Proceedings of the International Conference on Innovation and Emerging Technologies -ICIET-2021, 2021)
    Bamboo has been used as a construction material, since ancient times and has a long tradition of being used as a structural material in the construction industry due to its availability and low cost. However, due to ...
  • Review on Geosynthetic Inclusions for the Enhancement of Ballasted Rail Tracks 
    Venuja, S.; Navaratnarajah, S. K.; Bandara, C. S.; Jayasinghe, J. A. S. C. (Springer, 2021)
    Currently, there is an increasing demand for rail transport from a growing and urbanizing population worldwide as it is a resource-efficient transport system. Moreover, its popularity among people is due to safety, reliability ...
  • Vortex Shedding-Induced Fatigue Analysis for High-Mast Lighting Towers. 
    Jeyamohan, K.; Bandara, C. S.; Jayasinghe, J. A. S. C. (Springer, 2022)
    The high-mast lighting towers that are subjected to cyclic wind loadings (due to vortex shedding action) tend to fail due fatigue failure. From past studies, based on the testing and finite element analysis, it was found ...
