Factors Affecting the Track Quality Behaviour
As we examined in Section IV, “deterioration or degradation is the reduction of the original quality due to use and/or environmental influences”. In par. 18.2 we identified that three main groups of factors may be distinguished that contribute to the deterioration of railway infrastructure:
Use: wear by physical contact, static and dynamic load
Environment: climatic influence, water
Failures: faulty components, bad construction
In most of the cases it is not just one of these factors that causes deterioration, but a combination of them.
