โฆ Synopsis
An integrated train-track-subsoil dynamic interaction model of moving-train induced ground vibration is developed on the basis of vehicle dynamics, track dynamics and the Green's functions of subsoil. The model takes account of the vibrations of vehicle components, the quasi-static axle loads and the dynamic excitations between the wheels and track. The analyzed results from an example show that the ground vibration characteristics have a close relationship with train speed and soil properties; the dynamic responses excited by wheel-track irregularity have big influence on the high frequency components of ground vibration; with the increase of distance to the track, the ground acceleration has the tendency of decrease, and the relevance of acceleration curves and train excitation becomes less obvious; the intersections of moving load speed-lines and subsoil dispersion curves are some resonance frequencies that cause the amplification of ground vibrations; there exists a critical speed for moving train that is close to the minimum velocity of the Rayleigh's wave in the subsoil.
