A review of recent research on structural monitoring in railway industry is proposed in this
paper, with a special focus on stress-based solutions. After a brief analysis of the …

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 …

Railway track transition zones are areas where there is a sudden change in the track-ground
structure. They include changes between ballasted and slab track, bridge approaches, and …

A semi-analytical methodology was proposed to predict vibrations considering train-track-
soil and soil-pile-building coupling. It contained three subsystems of vehicle-track-soil …

The vibration caused by underground trains running on a curved track often has a greater
impact on residents, buildings, or sensitive instruments than that of a straight track. A …

In urban rail transit, it is important to reduce the train-induced vibration on ambient
environment. To achieve this goal, a new elastic side-supporting long sleeper damping track …

In this paper, an efficient and robust approach is presented for the prediction of subway train-
induced ground vibrations considering random track unevenness. The proposed approach …

Railway track transitions are zones where there is an abrupt change in the track-ground
structure. They are often the location of rapid track deterioration, which means more frequent …

One of the main factors in the design of subways is the level of subway-induced vibrations.
The ground borne vibrations are usually estimated by prediction models among which the …

This work presents a simplified method to evaluate building shaking due to arbitrary base
excitations, and an example application to railway problems. The model requires minimal …
