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 …

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 …

There is a great need to develop rail networks over long distances and within cities as more
sustainable transport options. However, noise and vibration are seen as a negative …

A field measurement of ground vibration was performed on the Beijing− Shanghai high-
speed railway in China. In this paper, the experimental results of vertical ground vibration …

Today, the need for development of metro lines in crowded urban environments is
inevitable. Construction and operation of metro generally have adverse side effects (such as …

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 …

The dynamic amplification effects of the response due to a moving load on the surface of an
elastic solid has been object of research for more than a century. However, if in the …

As rail transportation continues to advance, it provides significant convenience to the public.
However, the environmental vibration and noise generated during its operation have …
