A Coupled FE-TLE Model for the Prediction of Subway Train-Induced Ground-Borne Vibrations

Abstract:

A coupled finite element–thin layer element (FE-TLE) model for the prediction of subway induced vibrations was developed. With this model, the soil-tunnel system is divided into two parts, i.e., the tunnel structure and layered soil with a tunnel type hole. The tunnel structure is simulated by finite elements and the layered soils with hole by thin layer elements. The model fully accounts for the dynamic interaction between the tunnel and the soil. The numerical models for train-induced ground-borne vibrations were validated by in-situ experiments.
