진동전파차단효과는 방진구가 가장 좋으나, 기술적인 문제에 의해 방진벽을 설치하는경우에 방진벽에 의한 진동전파차단효과는 여러 연구들에 의해 다음과 같이 요약된다. - 방진벽은 진동원에 가깝게 설치할수록 좋다. - 방진벽과 지반의 강성비가 클수록 방진벽의 진동차단성능은 우수하다. - 콘크리트보다 더 높은 강도의 방진벽도 더 좋은 결과를 나타내지 않는다.

대부분의 경우 지반을 통해 전달되는 진동을 줄이기 위해 사용되는 방진벽의 차진효율은 지반 위 한 점에서의 진폭저감계수로 표현되고 있다. 그러나 한 점에서의 진동차단 효율은 일정 지역의 평균값과 많은 차이를 보이고 있어, 일정 단지의 진동환경 개선에 요구되는 경우, 한 점에서의 값만으로 차진효율을 표현하는 것은 적합하지 않다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 단지 내 진동환경 개선의 판단방법을 제시하고, 방진벽의 기하학적 규모가 방진벽의 진동차단 효율에 미치는 영향을 경계요소법을 이용하여 구하였다. 해석결과에 의하면 강성 방진벽의 경우, 단면적인 방진벽의 차진성능에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper aims at investigating the material and dimensions of a wall barrier such as installation depth, thickness, and distance from vibration source by means of finite element method (FEM). In this study, various materials such as concrete, EPS, and steel were adopted. The results showed that the efficiency of a wall barrier appears to be more dependent on installation depth than thickness. In addition, a concrete wall barrier is less efficient than any other wall barrier. In contrast, EPS wall barriers seem to be much sensitive to the wall thickness than the depth.

In general, environment-induced vibration propagates from the center of source to the destination through ground. In fact, the mechanism of wave propagation is highly dependent on the ground conditions, and various methods to protect structures from such a ground vibration have been proposed. The method of wall barrier has been frequently used to cut off ground vibration effectively. However, the capability of wall barrier may be affected by various factors like constituent material of it. Therefore, it is important to figure out appropriate material for the wall barrier. This study is focused on the effect of EPS on the vibration protection. Centrifuge model tests were performed. Two types of models such as a cylindrical and a rectangular wall were used. For the cylindrical type of wall, installation depth was changed, while the length of the wall varied fur the rectangular type to figure out the capability of vibration protection.

The stiff top layer in a soil profile, which can happen in winter, may change the isolation effect of the wave barrier. The research scope of this paper is the investigation of the propagation of surface waves in layered soil with a stiff layer on its top, and the isolation effect of the solid stiff wave barrier. The investigations have been performed numerically by the Boundary-Element Method as a two-dimensional problem. A strip foundation vibrated harmonically in vertical direction was considered as the vibration source. Three soil profiles, a homogeneous half-space, two profiles with different thickness of stiff top layer, with two different types of wave barriers were investigated. The profiles with a stiff top layer show considerable reductions of the amplitude of the vibration in comparison to the homogeneous soil profile. The layered soil profiles with a stiff top layer do not show wave propagation velocities as high as they are expected from the material properties. Furthermore the vibration amplitudes in a frozen soil are much smaller with distance than in a non-frozen soil.

This paper presents an assessment method of the ground vibration level with a combination of measured data and an analytic method. The basic concept of the method is similar to that in FRA(Federal Railway Administration) manual for detailed vibration analyses. However, going into detail, the assessment method was modified for a feasible evaluation of the vibration reduction effects of diverse types of wave barriers. The force density was evaluated in a vehicle-track interaction analysis and the transfer mobility of vibration was analyzed through a 2-D ground vibration analysis. The calculated 2-D transfer mobility was corrected to incorporate transfer characteristics of actual ground vibration by comparing the previously measured data and analysis results. Nine types of vibration reduction effects of wave barriers were analyzed on a shallow tunnel section of an urban railway where numerous civil complaints had actually been filed.

생산 현장의 진동환경은 부품생산활동과 관련된 공정변수중 대표적인 것으로 기계 부품 생산의 품질 및 생산품의 불량률에 큰 영향을 미치며 또한 주변으로 전파된 진동은 우수한 진동환경을 요하는 다른 생산장비에 나쁜 영향을 미치기도 한다. 본 연구의 대상은 공장의 이전으로 인한 환경변화에 의해 발생한 타공형 방음벽 생산 프레스의 진동을 제어하기 위해 바닥의 진동가속도 레벨을 측정하고 DIN 5140에 제시된 기준에 적합하도록 방진 시스템을 설계하였으며 그 결과 방진전과 비교하여 약 20 ㏈ 가량의 바닥 진동 가속도 레벨이 감소하였다.

In general, open trenches or in-filled trenches have been used to isolate transmitting of vibration. Recently alternative methods, in which various materials are used for wall barriers have been proposed and performed in several sites. Although the effects of these methods are verified, resonable and qualitative evaluation methods have not yet been conducted. It may be because many factors, such as the characteristics of vibration sources, ground condition, and parameters of wall barrier are coupled complicatedly. In this study, a series of centrifugal modelings were conducted in order to examine the evaluation method of a vibration wall barrier when point load transmits to the surface. The experiments were performed with different stiffness of wall barriers and different depths of installations. Using the results obtained from tests, effects of those variables on the efficiency of vibration barrier were analyzed. Through this investigation we observed vibration transmission of under ground, and verified the applicability of ball dropping system which was developed in this study.

An analytical method is developed to study the propagation of surface waves across infilled trenches. The Green's function technique is used to estimate the reflection and transmission coefficients of Rayleigh waves across a semi-infinite plate inserted between two homogeneous quarter-spaces. After validating the method against experimental data, influence of the material contrast and the angle of incidence on the screening effectiveness of an infilled trench is examined.

A numerical experiment is conduced to study the wave screening effectiveness of wave barriers which are constructed to reduce the ground-transmitted vibration. The finite element method is used for the simulation of the wave propagation behavior. In order to reduce the computational burden the absorbing boundary's one employed. Validity of the numerical model is checked by comparing the results with the published data. The screening effectiveness of the in filled trenches is then studied for different trench dimensions and material properties.
