Numerical models of a railway track rarely take the nonlinear dynamic component behaviour of the railpad into account due to three important problems: first, the considerable amount of calculation time consumed by nonlinear numerical models; second, the lack of validation tools for nonlinear numerical models; third, the lack of data on the nonlinear properties of those components. The ever-increasing power of computers will solve the first problem. Scale models can be a solution for the validation problem. This paper discusses a practical solution for the third problem. The paper will present an alternative set-up for railpad testing allowing for the measurement of stiffness and damping values between 20 and 2500 Hz with variable preload. It shows the important variation of the dynamic stiffness and the loss factor throughout the chosen frequency range. It is also found that the nonlinear dynamic behaviour of this railway track component certainly affects the dynamic behaviour of the complete track.
