Ring model of railroad wheel vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1982
A ring model for prediction of the vibration characteristics of railroad wheels is presented. Earlier workers showed that ring theory gave a good explanation of the ratio of resonant frequencies in the railroad wheel, assuming flexural modes are excited in the rim. It was assumed that the massive rim drove the plate of the wheel in forced vibration. In

Vibration damping to control railroad wheel squeal [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1983
The squeal noise radiated by rapid transit wheels on sharp turns is an important instance of friction generated noise. It is caused by the lateral slip-stick frictional force between the wheel and railhead. Noise control methods such as rail lubrication, hard faced rails, tuned wheel dampers, and resilient wheels have not been entirely satisfactory ...

Analysis of Ground Vibration near a Railroad

open access: yesThe 9th International Symposium on Recent Advances in Exploration Geophysics (RAEG 2005), 2005
The ground vibration generated by the Shinkansen, Japanese super express train,can be problematic for people and structures nearby. The purpose of this study is to make clear the mechanism of the ground vibration generated by a train and to develop a numerical simulation tool which can quantitatively evaluate the effect of wave filtering. This study is

Experience in the use of seismic recording of vibrations from trains to evaluate the condition of buildings and structures

open access: yesВестник Научно-исследовательского института железнодорожного транспорта, 2017
Constructions along railway traffic lines are always exposed to vinrations generated by the passing transport. This sometimes leads to shifts in their state even threatening the comfort of the people that stay here.
