Predicting the Influence of Vibration from Trains in the Throat Area of a Metro Depot on Over-Track Buildings
Source abstract
Abstract
Urban land resources are scarce in China. To utilize land effectively and economically, many cities are developing over-track buildings above metro depots. The vibration from the entrance and exit lines of metro depots under an over-track platform would significantly impact over-track buildings. To study the influence of train vibration in the throat area of a metro depot on over-track buildings, a simulation model was established using a finite element method. The reasonability of the simulation method and parameter settings was verified through comparing the vibration simulation results with vibration test results in the throat area of a metro depot. Furthermore, the impact of parameters of over-track platform and building on indoor vibration induced by a train was quantitatively studied. According to simulation results, a prediction model was developed to predict the impact of train vibration on over-track buildings in metro depots. From the perspective of architectural planning and design, this study provides a theoretical and technical basis for the prevention and control of indoor vibrations in over-track buildings of urban metro depots.
