Ground-borne noise and vibration from railway lines can cause human distress/annoyance,
and also negatively affect real estate property values. Therefore this paper analyses a …

Beam on elastic foundation theory is widely employed when studying railway track
behaviour, for applications such as track dynamics, and noise and vibration. At a basic level …

This paper is a review of the effect of vehicle characteristics on ground-and track borne-
vibrations from railways. It combines traditional theory with modern thinking and uses a …

This paper reviews, synthesises and benchmarks new understandings relating to railway
vibrations. Firstly, the effect of vibrations on passenger comfort is evaluated, followed by its …

Vibration and noise aspects play a relevant role in the lifetime and comfort of urban areas
and their residents. Among the different sources, the one coming from the rail transit system …

A three dimensional numerical model is presented capable of modelling the propagation
and transmission of ground vibration in the vicinity of high speed railways. It is used to …

This paper outlines an experimental analysis of ground-borne vibration levels generated by
high speed rail lines on various earthwork profiles (at-grade, embankment, cutting and …

Transit-oriented development, such as metro depot and over-track building complexes, has
expanded rapidly over the last 5 years in China. Over-track building construction has the …

Although subways are usually near the roads, very few studies have been carried out to
assess the vibration caused by the simultaneous passage of road and railway vehicles. This …

This paper provides new insights into the characteristics and uncertainties in railway ground-
borne vibration prediction. It analyses over 1500 ground-borne vibration records, at 17 high …
