The BIONICS embankment, located in Northumberland (UK), is 6 m high, 90 m long and orientated approximately east-west with a 1:2 slope, representative of typical UK infrastructure. The embankment comprises four panels with the central panels constructed to Highways England specifications (termed ‘well-compacted’) and two outermost sections built with reduced compaction to represent poorly constructed/heterogeneous rail embankments.

These dataset forms a complete repository of all data collected at BIONICS embankment. The historical data was recorded from November 2008 to January 2018. And the new data was recorded from August 2021, with ongoing monitoring and recording. Please see the readme files for each dataset details.
