Abstract
The article presents an investigation on the dynamic impact from passing trains on noise barriers. The effect was an investigation along two railway line sections: on the first section the barriers were located less than 3.8 m from the track axis and considerable distress of the barriers was observed; on the second section barriers of the same type were located 4.6 m from the track axis and no distress was noted. A method for determination of displacement occurring under aerodynamic loading is presented, based on measurement of vibration acceleration and calculation of double integral. The obtained results are compared with measurements from an interferometric radar. Parameters for analysis and assessment of the magnitude of dynamic impact from passing trains are proposed. The results of the analyses performed on the two railway line sections are compared. The article also presents laboratory tests of an undamaged noise barrier panel. Conclusions are formulated regarding the use of noise barriers susceptible to fatigue due to alternating positive and negative aerodynamic pressure peaks.
期刊介绍:
The quarterly journal Roads and Bridges – Drogi i Mosty is published by the Road and Bridge Research Institute since September 2012 as a bilingual English-Polish journal. From 2002 to 2012 the journal was printed under the title Drogi i Mosty. The journal mission is to promote current achievements in science and technology in the field of road and bridge engineering. The journal is intended as a forum of the exchange of innovative concepts and solutions between the researches from different countries. Original scientific and technical papers in the field of civil engineering and related engineering sciences are published. The scope of Roads and Bridges – Drogi i Mosty includes design, construction, maintenance and safe use of roads, bridges, airports and other transportation structures.
