Railway Noise and Vibration: Mechanisms, Modelling and Means of Control
TL;DR: In this article, the authors bring together coverage of the theory of railway noise and vibration with practical applications of noise control technology at source to solve the problems of railway traffic noise and vibrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of ground vibration from trains using the wavenumber finite and boundary element methods
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use the wavenumber finite/boundary element (WBE) model to model ground and built structures, such as tunnels and tracks, and apply it to surface vibration and tunnel vibration analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental validation of the twins prediction program for rolling noise, part 1: description of the model and method
TL;DR: The Track-Wheel Interaction Noise Software (TWINS) as mentioned in this paper is a software package for measuring wheel/rail rolling noise in terms of the surface roughness of wheel and rail.
Journal ArticleDOI
A theoretical model for ground vibration from trains generated by vertical track irregularities
TL;DR: In this article, a model is developed for predicting ground vibrations due to vertical track irregularities, which incorporates vehicles, a track and a layered ground, and uses the moving axle loads and the vertical rail irregularities as its inputs.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the modelling of wheel/rail noise generation
David Thompson,C.J.C. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: A review of theoretical models that have been developed to predict these phenomena is given in this article, where the authors consider three main categories of wheel/rail noise: rolling noise, impact noise, and squeal noise.
