Site Test and Analysis of Vibration Attenuation Effect of Steel Spring Floating Slab Track

Abstract:

Through site test, the paper conducts site test to vertical vibration accelerations when a train passes through steel rails and tunnel walls at a steel spring floating slab track section and a general track section in the tunnel of Yizhuang Line of Beijing Metro. The paper also conducts comparative analysis of the accelerations in time domain and frequency domain. It is shown in results that the vibration acceleration level of the steel spring floating slab track in time domain is reduced by 22 dB in tunnel walls in comparison with the general track; in the frequency domain, the vibration effect is gradually increased with frequency increase and reaches the optimal effect in medium-high frequency. The maximum vibration attenuation quantity of frequency division reaches up to 40 dB; and the maximum Z weighted vibration acceleration level is reduced by 22 dB.
