A User-Friendly Prediction Tool for Railway Induced Ground Vibrations: Emission – Transmission – Immission

  • Conference paper
Book cover Noise and Vibration Mitigation for Rail Transportation Systems

Part of the book series: Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Multidisciplinary Design ((NNFM,volume 99))

Summary

The excitation and propagation of railway vibration has been thoroughly investigated in the German research project ‘Praxisgerechtes Prognoseverfahren für Schienenverkehrserschütterungen’. The aim of this project is to establish simple models and rules, which are theoretically founded and experimentally proven, and to put them in one comprehensive computer programme.
