Description:
Wheel ground borne vibrations, may have a significant impact on human activity and on nearby buildings. In metropolitan cities, metro lines and their development may cause such vibrations. Despite many works and solutions for path and receiver, the excitation source could also have a great effect. Wheel and rail damages are the two sources of vibration which can increase the damage impact by a factor of 5x. Wheel damage would increase dynamic vertical force noticeably and an increase in ground-borne vibration is expected. In this study with the help of finite element modelling, wheel damage including wheel flat, spalling and wheel oval is studied for a slab track and results are discussed. The studied parameters are velocity and wheel damage and their effect on ground-borne vibrations are examined.
