Abstract

The development of novel material technologies for railway tracks is welcome indeed. The discusser read with interest the paper, which was well written by the authors. It is appreciated that the authors concluded that the study has limitations, and that further research is needed. Thus, the discusser strongly recommends that the authors continue to perform field measurements on the composite sleepers that are currently installed on the tracks.
