This study is using electronic-delay system detonator which can input an accurate detonating delay, compare predicted blasting vibration level derived from vibration 3D modelling with real measured blasting vibrations, and then considered modelling results are able to apply blast design. It confirmed there are certain relations between modelling and real vibration data, so modelling prediction method also can be apply design various blast conditions and prediction equation of blast vibration.

Considering a countermeasure against vibration along the existing line, in many cases, it may be the most efficient method to replace existing fasteners with high resilient fasteners because of the restriction of the construction of a new track type. There are many types of high resilient fasteners which are different in price and performance. Therefore it is important to choose the high resilient fastener which has best vibration-proof performance per price. In this study, a prediction method which can exactly evaluate the performance of a fastener in the reduction the ground borne noise in the existing line is presented, which is constructed based on the combination of the measurement and the simulation. A numerical example using the presented method is introduced to evaluate the vibration-proof performance for the solution of the vibration problem in the existing line.

Man-made vibrations from traffic and construction activities are important because they may cause damage to structures. The current literature provides that damages in the urban areas were not caused by direct transmission of vibration, but rather through subsequent settlement caused by soil densification. In this paper. prediction technique of ground borne vibration induced settlement was introduced on the basis of case studies. In situ application technique of the settlement prediction model developed in laboratary was described, and the predicted settlement was compared with the measured settlement from case studies. The settlement from case studies hlatched well with the settlement calculated from the model. The parametric studies of settlement in typical urban site conditions were performed to determine the sensitive parameters and to develop reliable vibration monitoring and interpretation schemes. These demonstrated the potential usefulness of the model for the evaluation and prediction of the vibration induced in-situ settlement of sands.

Predictions of vibration induced by subway operation has been studied through comparison between the measurement values and the estimated values which proposed by other scientists to determine the adequacy of each equation. It was found from this study that the Wilson's prediction equation gives the best overall approximation value although the peak frequency band lies somewhat higher than that obtained from measurement.

Noise and vibration induced by subway operation is one of the major problem for the residents living nearby railway tracks. Many scientists and engineers have been working on the more accurate prediction of noise and vibration to provide the better residential environment. Some prediction equations were determined to compare the measurement value of a noise obtained from the inside of a residential area. It was observed that the condition of a soil type is one of the major parameter which should be considered to obtain the more accurate prediction value of a noise.

Damages and public complaints are increased due to construction noise and vibration from several sources. It is urgently needed to develop the easy and practical method to estimate the vibration effect. In this study, to predict the vibration effect, the method using the response spectrum with amplification factor concepts prroposed by Newmark and Hall is used. Also the applicability of the method is examined. Vibration measurement on subway structure, foundation and building structures are performed and the results show that the provided method is practical and can be used to predict the vibration effect.

In this paper, field measurements in the subway tunnel and adjacent building were performed to predict the pound vibration level induced by urban rapid transit (subway) in Seoul, Korea. From the results of the measurements, the measured ground vibration level induced by subway in Seoul is smaller than the empirical formula of New York, but it is bigger than the empirical formula of Tokyo which has been commonly used in Korea. We suggested the empirical formula for prediction of ground vibration level induced by subway in Seoul considering on the wave propagation path for soils or rocks, respectively.

For the reduction and efficient management of railway noise, first of all prediction of railway noise is necessarily requisted. At home and abroad many studies for prediction of raiiway nearby noise have been accomplished. But it is impossible to predict easily and exactly for the Korean Railway, because the acoustic powers for each rolling stock operated in Korea have not been built yet. So in this study, prediction model equation for environmental noise for Korean rolling stock Mugungwha was suggested using SEL of engine and rolling noise component separately. In this prediction model, the number of car, distance from the rail can be considered. Finally for the validation of prediction nlodel equation, the predicted Leq was compared to the measured Leq.

The estimation of proper prediction method and the transformation method of environmental regulation standard were carried out by measuring blasting vibration. Vibration velocity was more adequate than vibration level in the blasting design by scaled distance. Thus, design and construction mutt be controlled by vibration velocity, and it is required that the vibration velocity is transformed to vibration level to meet regulation standard. Three transformation methods were studied. First, transformation formula is derived from the shock vibration data only. The second method it the transformation by correlation equation of vibration velocity and vibration level measured at the same time. The last one is the transformation of vibration velocity by FFT. It seems to be difficult to estimate damages by these methods because that every method shows considerable error. But transformation formula of PPV component to vibration level was most practical.
