Ground vibration from underground railways: how simplifying assumptions limit prediction accuracy
(University of CambridgeDepartment of EngineeringChurchill College, 2010-10-23)Noise and vibration from underground railways is a documented disturbance to individuals living or working near subways. Much work has been done to understand and simulate the dynamic interactions between the train, track, ...

On the performance of base-isolated buildings: a generic model
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2002-02-12)Ground-borne vibration has existed ever since the development of urban road and rail networks. Vibration generated by the moving traffic propagates through the ground and into buildings, resulting in unacceptable levels ...

Vibration from underground railways: considering piled foundations and twin tunnels
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Engineering, 2011-02-08)Accurate predictions of ground-borne vibration levels in the vicinity of an underground railway are greatly sought after in modern urban centers. Yet the complexity involved in simulating the underground environment means ...
