1. 1. Soil-structure interaction for traffic induced vibrations in buildings

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Marcel Hofstetter; Nima Pashai; [2018]
   Keywords : Soil-Structure Interaction; Frequency Response Function; Traffic-Induced Vibrations; Structural Dynamics; Signal Processing; Calibration; Jord-strukturinverkan; Frekvenssvarsfunktion; Trafikinducerade Vibrationer; Strukturdynamik; Signalbearbetning; Kalibrering;

   Abstract : Major cities in Sweden experience a population growth, demanding innovative solutions regarding land exploitation for residential housing. One solution is to build closer to existing railway tracks, however difficulties arise regarding determining traffic induced vibrations from trains. READ MORE

3. 2. Methodology for analysis of traffic-induced building vibrations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

   Author : Rickard Torndahl; Tobias Svensson; [2017]
   Keywords : infinite elements; soil dynamics; structural dynamics; wave propagation; dynamic reduction; traffic-induced vibration; finite element method; building vibration; structural design; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Urban population growth leads to denser cities where buildings are being constructed closer to sources of vibration like motorways, railways and tramways. The risk of disturbing vibrations is thereby increasing which could affect residents and sensitive equipment, for instance equipment used in hospitals. READ MORE

4. 3. Influence of In-filledTrench as Wave Barrier on Ground Vibrations

   University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

   Author : Leilei Xu; [2012]
   Keywords : ground vibration; cell foam; velocity amplitude; particle velocity;

   Abstract : With the development and expansion of traffic systems, problems associated with ground vibrations have required increased attention. Increasing vehicle loads,traffic volumes, and aging roads and railways,vibrations induced by traffic are gradually becoming acrucialproblem. READ MORE

5. 4. Traffic Induced Vibrations at Road-Bridge - Experimental and Numerical Analysis

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI); Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik

   Author : Oskar Baggens; [2012]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : In the north-east part of Lund, Sweden, the MAX IV facility is (in the event of writing this thesis) under construction. MAX IV is a synchrotron radiation facility which has a high requirement regarding low vibrations. Within this thesis a nearby road-bridge for the highway E22 was studied using experimental and numerical methods. READ MORE

6. 5. Traffic-induced vibrations on a two span composite railway bridge : Comparison of theory and measurements

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad; KTH/Järnvägsgruppen, JVG

   Author : José Miguel Escudero López; [2011]
   Keywords : High speed train; dynamic analysis; railway bridge; vibrations; Gröna Tåget; finite element model; eigenfrequencies; model updating;

   Abstract : The economic and technologic development experienced by the society in the last decades has caused the demand of a new type of faster and more comfortable transport. This type of demand has been covered by the air transport, the road transport and the railway transport. READ MORE
