Journal ArticleDOI
The experimental validation of a numerical model for the prediction of railway induced vibrations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the experimental validation of a numerical model for the prediction of train induced vibrations, where the track geometry is assumed to be invariant with respect to the longitudinal direction, allowing for an efficient solution of the dynamic track-soil interaction problem in the frequency-wavenumber domain.
Journal ArticleDOI
A 2.5D coupled FE-BE methodology for the dynamic interaction between longitudinally invariant structures and a layered halfspace
TL;DR: In this paper, a 2.5D coupled finite element-boundary element methodology for the computation of the dynamic interaction between a layered soil and structures with a longitudinally invariant geometry, such as railway tracks, roads, tunnels, dams, and pipelines is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The control of ground-borne vibrations from railway traffic by means of continuous floating slabs
TL;DR: In this article, the effectiveness of a floating slab track for the control of ground-borne vibrations generated by rail transportation systems is studied by means of a three-dimensional numerical model for the prediction of railway induced vibrations that fully accounts for the interaction between the train, the track and the soil.

Short Note: EDT: An ElastoDynamics Toolbox for MATLAB
TL;DR: The ElastoDynamics Toolbox (EDT) version 2.1 offers an extensive set of MATLAB functions to model elastodynamic wave propagation in horizontally layered media based on the direct stiffness method and the thin layer method, which are formulated in the frequency-wavenumber domain.
