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 …

The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art on
railway-induced ground vibration. The governing physical mechanisms, prediction methods …

In this paper, a numerical approach for the prediction of vibrations induced in buildings due
to railway traffic in tunnel is proposed. The numerical method is based on a sub-structuring …

The first part of the paper includes a brief presentation of a 2.5 D FEM-BEM model,
developed by the authors, which is able to lead with problems of vibrations induced by traffic …

In this paper, a general and fully three dimensional multi-body-finite element-boundary
element model, formulated in the time domain to predict vibrations due to train passage at …

Train-induced vibration prediction of the over-track buildings requires acceptable both
efficiency and accuracy in the preliminary construction stage. To ensure accuracy, soil …

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 …

In predictions of railway-induced vibrations, a distinction is generally made between the
quasi-static and dynamic excitation. The quasi-static excitation is related to the static …

This paper presents a general 2.5 D coupled finite element–boundary element methodology
for the computation of the dynamic interaction between a layered soil and structures with a …

Ground vibrations induced by railway traffic at grade and in tunnels are often studied by
means of two-and-half dimensional (2.5 D) models that are based on a Fourier transform of …
