Wave 2002: Wave Propagation - Moving Load - Vibration Reduction


Book Description

Detailing the proceedings of the Wave 2002 workshop at Okayama University in Japan, this collection of eighteen peer-reviewed papers concerns the issue of the ground vibration and noise caused by construction activities, explosions in the ground, or high-speed trains. Providing key information for engineers, researchers, scientists, practitioners, teachers and students working in the field of structural dynamics or soil dynamics, this text also includes a useful address list in the appendix to enable readers to gather further information if required.

Wave 2000: Wave Propagation - Moving Load - Vibration Reduction


Book Description

Papers on moving load, as well as measurements and track dynamics, from proceedings of the international workshop in Bochum. Also covering building vibrations and wave field analysis.




Wave Propagation for Train-induced Vibrations


Book Description

For buildings and factories located near railway or subway lines, the vibrations caused by the moving trains may be annoying to the residents or detrimental to the high-precision production lines. Compared with the boundary element method (BEM) for solving the half-space problems, this book presents finite/infinite element method (FIEM).
