The noise from the elevated lines of rail transit has become a growing problem. This paper presents a new method for the rapid prediction of the structure-borne noise from steel or composite bridges, based on the receptance and Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA), which is essential to the study of the generation mechanism and the design of a low-noise bridge. First, the vertical track-bridge coupled vibration equations in the frequency domain are constructed by simplifying the rail and the bridge as an infinite Timoshenko beam and a finite Euler-Bernoulli beam respectively. Second, all wheel/rail forces acting upon the track are computed by taking a moving wheel-rail roughness spectrum as the excitation to the train-track-bridge system. The displacements of rail and bridge are obtained by substituting wheel/rail forces into the track-bridge coupled vibration equations, and all spring forces on the bridge are calculated by multiplying the stiffness by the deformation of each spring. Then, the input power to the bridge in the SEA model is derived from spring forces and the bridge receptance. The vibration response of the bridge is derived from the solution to the power balance equations of the bridge, and then the structure-borne noise from the bridge is obtained. Finally, a tri-span continuous steel-concrete composite bridge is taken as a numerical example, and the theoretical calculations in terms of the vibration and noise induced by a passing train agree well with the field measurements, verifying the method. The influence of various factors on wheel/rail and spring forces is investigated to simplify the train-track-bridge interaction calculation for predicting the vibration and noise from steel or composite bridges.

During the passage of the train, the railway bridge undergoes vibration and noise. The noise of railway bridge can be occurred from various sources. The wheel-rail contact, noise from machinery parts, structural-borne noise, pantagraph noise and aerodynamic noise of the train work in combination. Running train is one of the most important factors for railway bridge vibration. The repeated forces with equidistant axles cause the magnification of dynamic responses which relates with maintenance of the track structure and structure-borne noises. The noise problem is one of the most important issues in services of light rail transit system which usually passes through towns. In the present study, The vibration and noise of the LRT bridge will be investigated with utilizing dynamics responses from moving train as input data for noise analysis.

An acoustic finite element model of a bridge is developed to evaluate the noise generated by the traffic-induced vibration of the bridge. The dynamic response of a multi-girder bridge, modeled by a 3-dimensional frame element model, is analyzed with a 3-axle(8DOF) truck model and a 5-axle(l3DOF) semi-trailer. The flat plate element is used to analyze the acoustic pressure due to the fluid-structure interactions between the vibrating surface and contiguous acoustic fluid medium. The radiation fields of noise with a specified distribution of vibrating velocity and pressure on the structural surface are also computed using the Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral. In an attempt to illustrate the influence of the structural vibration noise of a bridge to total noise level around the bridge, the random function is used to generate the vehicle noise source including the engine noise and the rolling noise interacting between the road and tire. Among the diverse parameters affecting the dynamic response of bridge, the vehicle velocity, the vehicle weight, the spatial distribution of the road surface roughness, the stiffness degradation of the bridge and the variation of the air temperature changing the air density are found to be the main factors that increase the level of vibration noise. Consequently, The amplification rate of noise increases with the traveling speed and the vehicle weight.

An acoustic finite element model of a bridge is developed to evaluate the noise generated by the traffic-induced vibration of the bridge. The dynamic response of a multi-girder bridge, modeled by a 3-dimensional frame element model, is analyzed with a 3-axle 8 DOFs truck model and a 5-axle 13 DOFs semi-trailer. The flat plate element is used to analyze the acoustic pressure due to the fluid-structure interactions between the vibrating surface and contiguous acoustic fluid medium. The radiation fields of noise with a specified distribution of vibrating velocity and pressure on the structural surface are also computed using the Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral. Although the noise produced by the bridge vibration is not serious in itself, which is below the audible frequency range, it should be considered as an interaction problem between vehicle noise and bridge vibration noise in order to evaluate the traffic noise around the bridge.

국내 철도의 환경 소음 예측을 위해서 기존에는 총합 소음도의 거리별 경험식에 기초한 모델을 이용하였던 바, 교량 주변 소음도를 계산하는 데에도 거리만의 함수를 이용하였다. 그러나 콘크리트교에서는 수음점의 거리뿐만 아니라 위치에 따라서도 소음도가 변화한다. 본 논문에서는 철도 콘크리트교에서 교량 상판에 의한 회절 및 지면 효과를 고려한 소음전파 예측모델을 도출하였으며, 이때 ISO 9613-2의 소음 전파 모델을 이용하였다. 고속철도 콘크리트 교 주변 소음도에 대한 예측값을 실제 측정결과와 비교하였으며, 그 결과 본 예측 모델이 비교적 작은 오차를 냄을 확인하였다.

The auxiliary engine exhaust noise in ships are directly transmitted to bridge wing with the only distance attenuation. It is not so practical that no special treatment can be applied between exhaust pipe and bridge wing in order to reduce the transmission of the exhaust noise. In general, a silencer is fitted to reduce the exhaust noise and also noise of bridge wing. The silencer should be properly designed under the consideration of the frequency component of the exhaust noise and the required insertion loss. In this paper, the frequency component of exhaust noise of various engines are compared and a design and a design and installation of silencer to reduce low frequency is introduced.

The exhaust noise of auxiliary engine in ships is directly transmitted to bridge wing with only distance attenuation. It is not easy to find out practical treatment to be applied between exhaust pipe and bridge wing to reduce the transmission of the exhaust noise. In general, therefore, a silencer is fitted to reduce the exhaust noise and correspondingly noise of bridge wing. The silencer should be properly designed under the consideration of the frequency component of the exhaust noise and the required performance such as noise reduction or insertion loss. In general, the gas inside the exhaust pipe flows with high temperature and speed and thus onboard test condition is more adverse than the standard atmospheric condition. In this study, the test method to evaluate silencer performance using a probe microphone is introduced.

기존 선로구조물의 대부분은 준공된 지 상당한 시일이 경과되어 노후화가 많이 진행된 상태이다. 특히 기존 철도교량 중 판형교는 상당수가 준공으로부터 40~60년 이상 경과된 노후교량이며 도상 없이 거더에 침목이 직결되어 있어서 차량의 주행하중이 교량에 직접 전달되므로 유도상 교량과 비교하여 교량에 가해지는 충격 및 소음이 클 뿐만 아니라 동적인 충격과 진동도 상대적으로 크다. 따라서 기존선 판형교에 대한 적절한 유지관리 및 보수, 보강기술의 개발이 매우 시급하다. 본 연구에서는 기존선 판형교의 성능개선과 소음, 진동 문제 해결을 위해 기개발된 레일매립궤도 시스템의 특징을 소개하고, 레일매립궤도의 진동 및 소음 저감 성능을 평가하기 위해 길이 5m 침목이 설치되어 있는 무도상 판형교와 레일매립궤도를 적용한 판형교를 제작하여 동일한 가진 조건에 따라 발생되는 진동응답을 측정하고 분석하였다. 또한 실험에서 얻은 진동응답 데이터를 음향해석 모델의 입력데이터로 사용하여 방사소음해석을 수행하였다. 실험 및 해석 결과 레일매립궤도를 적용한 판형교가 무도상 판형교 보다 진동에서는 15.0~18.8dB정도 감소하고 소음의 경우 평균 7.7dB(A)정도 감소하는 것으로 확인되었다.

A conditional probability based approach known as Particle Filter Method (PFM) is a powerful tool for system parameter identification. In this paper, PFM has been applied to identify the vehicle parameters based on response statistics of the bridge. The flexibility of vehicle model has been considered in the formulation of bridge-vehicle interaction dynamics. The random unevenness of bridge has been idealized as non homogeneous random process in space. The simulated response has been contaminated with artificial noise to reflect the field condition. The performance of the identification system has been examined for various measurement location, vehicle velocity, bridge surface roughness factor, noise level and assumption of prior probability density. Identified vehicle parameters are found reasonably accurate and reconstructed interactive force time history with identified parameters closely matches with the simulated results. The study also reveals that crude assumption of prior probability density function does not end up with an incorrect estimate of parameters except requiring longer time for the iterative process to converge.
