Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
The commonly used two-step modeling approach for studying railway-induced ground vibrations involves first establishing a source model and then using the finite element method (FEM) for secondary modeling. In this process, the wheel/track interaction ...
