Abstract
A numerical model of continuous welded rail track based on finite element analysis has been built and been able to reproduce typical behaviour of this kind of tracks when subject to temperature rise. Applied to the case of a switch integrated to continuous welded rail tracks, the model has helped estimating the peak or rail axial stress that appears in this kind of configuration.
