Modelling the Environmental Effects of Railway Vibrations from Different Types of Rolling Stock: A Numerical Study

This paper analyses the influence of rolling stock dynamics on ground-borne vibration levels. Four vehicle types (Thalys, German ICE, Eurostar, and Belgian freight trains) are investigated using a multibody approach. First, a numerical model is constructed using a flexible track on which the vehicle...
