The strength of micro-pressure waves emitted from railway tunnels is strongly dependent upon the steepnesses of wavefronts arriving at tunnel portals after travelling along the tunnel. The steepnesses are themselves dependent upon the ability of phenomena such as skin friction to resist inertial ste
