A method for providing information related to the compaction state of soil when performing a compaction operation with a soil compactor includes: a) detecting a vertical acceleration and a horizontal acceleration of a vibratory roller when moving a soil compactor over soil to be compacted, b) determining a measurement relationship between a ground contact force and a deflection of the vibratory roller for one vibration cycle using the vertical acceleration and horizontal acceleration detected in operation a), c) determining a simulation relationship between the ground contact force and the deflection for one vibration cycle using a ground model taking into account at least one simulation parameter, d) comparing the simulation relationship to the measurement relationship, and e) determining that a default value of the at least one simulation parameter taken into account in the ground model substantially represents a corresponding soil parameter of the soil to be compacted when the simulation relationship substantially corresponds to the measurement relationship.

A method for stabilizing a track having sleepers supported on a track ballast and rails secured to the sleepers, includes using a stabilizing unit which is connected to a machine frame that can be moved on the rails and has a vibration exciter and rollers that can roll on the rails. The vibration exciter generates in particular horizontal vibrations which run transversely to the track longitudinal direction. The course of a force exerted onto the track by the stabilizing unit is recorded over a vibration path during a vibration cycle by sensors. At least one parameter is derived from the course by an evaluation device and is used to evaluate the stabilizing procedure and/or the quality of the track ballast. A device for implementing the method is also provided.

A method for compaction of a track ballast bed uses a tamping unit including two oppositely positioned tamping tools which are actuated with vibrations and are lowered into the track ballast bed during a tamping operation and moved towards one another with a squeezing motion. A progression of a force acting upon the tamping tool over a path covered by the tamping tool is recorded during a vibration cycle by sensors disposed at the tamping unit for at least one tamping tool. At least one characteristic value is derived therefrom and used to carry out an evaluation of the tamping operation and/or of a quality of the track ballast bed. The tamping unit is thus used as a measuring apparatus during operative use. A device for performing the method is also provided.
