Abstract

Increasing demands on speed increase, higher axle on transportation over dimensional and heavy loads cause simultaneous increase of unfavorable traffic effect on the structures of railways and on the train-induced ground vibration, respectively. This paper examines the residual problems of ground-borne vibration, the vehicle and track features which might be responsible for generation, how it is propagated, and how it might affect. A few of experimental results which have been obtained during studies made on Slovak Railways (ZSR) are presented in the paper, too.

Assessment of Ground Vibration from Passing Train

St. Louis, Missouri

Increasing demands on speed increase, higher axle on transportation over dimensional and heavy loads cause simultaneous increase of unfavorable traffic effect on the structures of railways and on the train-induced ground vibration, respectively. This paper examines the residual problems of ground-borne vibration, the vehicle and track features which might be responsible for generation, how it is propagated, and how it might affect. A few of experimental results which have been obtained during studies made on Slovak Railways (ZSR) are presented in the paper, too.
