Study of a Space-Time Monitoring of High-Speed Railway Underline Structure Using Distributed Optical Vibration Sensing Technology by Baye Mbaye Diouf, Ailan Che, Shaokong Feng

“…Overall, the numerical simulation results show that, in the elastic field, the track plate defects have a significant amplification effect on the vibration, and the magnification can be more than 2 to 3 times. The vibration monitoring results reveal two elements of the fault effects on the track slab dynamic response: the amplification of the dynamic response when the train is arriving and leaving the monitoring section and also causing extreme resonance when the train is passing increasing the vibration signal largely.…”
