ABSTRACT

Train-induced vibration is considered to be one of the factors that cause the spalling of tunnel concrete lining. This paper presents and discusses the train- induced vibrations measured near a track and on a side wall and upper slab of a subway open-cut tunnel. At the same time, simulation by 2-D FEM analysis is conducted to simulate the propagation of vibration. The analytical results are found to have the similar tendency to the measurement data.
