Vibrations

Analysis and reduction of vibrations

Scope

Noise emissions are often a joint phenomena linked to vibrations. Work on construction sites (both structural and underground engineering) often causes ground move­ments which can be perceived unpleasantly in the vicinity. More important, however, are the vibrations caused by the normal operation of the rail services. The latter will gain even higher importance due to the expansion and upgrading of the European rail network. Measures to reduce vibrations thus become indispensable.
