Mitigation of Train-Induced Floor Vibrations in Multi-Story Buildings Using a Blocking Floor
A new method is developed for reducing train–induced floor vibrations in buildings. Vibration transmitted through building columns to the upper floors can be mitigated by considerably increasing the thickness of a lower floor, which is named the “blocking floor”. This can be a desirable and inexpensive solution for vibration mitigation. The work presented by this paper shows the ability of an i...
متن کاملTuned Mass Dampers for Earthquake Vibrations of High-rise Buildings using Bee Colony Optimization Technique
This paper investigates the application of Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) method for the optimization of Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) employed for high-rise structures including Soil Structure Interaction (SSI). The model is a 40-story building, and Newmark method is utilized for the structure response to Bam earthquake data. The objective is to decrease both maximum displacement and accelerati...
متن کاملVibrations and re-radiated noise in buildings generated by surface high-speed train traffic
This paper deals with the numerical computation of the structural and acoustic response of a building to an incoming wave field generated by high-speed railway traffic at grade. The source model consists of the model of a moving vehicle on a longitudinally invariant domain coupled to a boundary element model of the underlying ground. The receiver model is based on a substructuring formulation a...
متن کاملReducing railway-induced ground-borne vibration by using open trenches and soft-filled barriers
A trench can act as a barrier to ground vibration and is a potential mitigation measure for low frequency vibration induced by surface railways. However, to be effective at very low frequencies the depth required becomes impractical. Nevertheless, for soil with a layered structure in the top few metres, if a trench can be arranged to cut through the upper, soft layer of soil, it can be effectiv...
متن کاملVibrations caused by train traffic and the effect of its mitigation on the quality of living
Railway traffic induced vibrations in dwellings often cause irritation or disturb the inhabitants. Mitigation has been performed, and measurements prove their effectiveness. The effect of vibration countermeasures on the quality of living however has not been studied earlier. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of vibration mitigation compared to the increase of inhabitant sa...
