Das elastische Element führt zu einer ausgeprägten Eigenfrequenz des Gesamtsystems bestehend aus Fahrzeug, Fahrweg und Untergrund. Die Wirkung der elastischen Elemente beruht darauf, dass die Frequenzen oberhalb dieser Eigenfrequenz abgemindert werden. Für die Ermittlung der Wirksamkeit der Minderungsmaßnahme werden das Gleis mit elastischem Element und das Gleis ohne elastisches Element berechnet. Beide Eisenbahnfahrwege werden mit der kombinierten Finite-Element- Randelement-Methode berechnet, wobei das Gleis einschließlich des Schotters mit der Finite-Element-Methode berechnet wird, der Gleisuntergrund hingegen mit der Randelementmethode. Für die erschütterungsmindernden Gleise erweist es sich als vorteilhaft, spezielle Gleisendelemente an den Seiten des FE-Modells anzufügen. Dadurch wird zusätzlich zur Unendlichkeit des Untergrundes auch die unendliche Länge des Gleises berücksichtigt. Für die Ermittlung der Minderungswirkung werden die frequenzabhängige Nachgiebigkeit des Gleise, die Kraftübertragung des Gleises, und die Fahrzeug-Fahrweg-Wechselwirkung berechnet. Schließlich werden die Kraftminderungen verschiedener Eisenbahnfahrwege dargestellt und der Einfluss der wesentlichen Parameter untersucht. T2 - 4.

The layered soil is calculated in frequency wavenumber domain and the solution for fixed or moving point or track loads follow as wavenumber integrals. The soil results from the measurements and the detailed models are approximated by simple formula which are used for the prediction of train-induced ground vibration. The influence of the track and the soil on the train induced ground vibration is analysed by the detailed models. The ground vibrations strongly depend on the regular and random inhomogeneity of the soil. The regular layering of the soil yields a cut-on and resonance phenomenon while the random inhomogeneity yields a scattering of the axle impulses which proved to be important for high-speed trains. The attenuation with distance of the ground vibration due to the point-like excitations such as vibrator or hammer excitations and the train-track excitation are investigated and compared. All theoretical results are compared with measurements at conventional and high-speed railway lines.

T1 - How to quantify the vibration reduction of railway tracks N2 - Railway tracks, which reduce the ground vibration, are necessary if the trains are passing near to building. Today the reduction effect of railway tracks is often determined by the complex (time domain) simulation of the passage of a complete train. This method of evaluating the reduction is very time consuming and the results include some arbitrary scatter. It is worth to look for simpler methods which yield clearer results in shorter time. This contribution presents the combined finite-element boundary-element method as a detailed method for the track-soil interaction and, on the other hand, some possible simplifications. One important idea for the reduction assessment is to split the reduction in a vehicle-track interaction part and a track transfer part. The track transfer is not influenced by the vehicle and by single axle loads and it can be calculated as a homogeneous problem along the track. The reduction of some tracks (for example of floating slab tracks) can be dominated by this track transfer function whereas other tracks (for example tracks with soft rail pads) are completely determined by the vehicle-track-interaction part. The different force transfer functions and the ground vibration ratios of tracks with elastic rail pads or elastic sleeper pads are shown as a result of the FEBEM model under a fixed harmonic axle load. The force transfer proves to be a useful quantity for to assess the vibration reduction of railway tracks.
