Vibrations of Railroad Due to The Passage of The Underground Train

Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2010, Vol 22, Issue 1

Abstract

In the paper we present results of vibration measurements in the train and on the base of the railroad in tunnels ofWarsaw Underground. Measurements were performed at straight and curved sections of the track. The paper is focused on the influence of the lateral slip in rail/wheel contact zone on the generation of vibrations and a noise. Vibrations were analyzed in terms of accelerations, velocities or displacements as a function of time and frequency. Results ware compared with the experiment of rolling of the wheel with lateral sleep. In both cases we observed double periodic oscillations.
