Efficacy of a sheet pile wall as a wave barrier for railway induced ground vibration KU Leuven
© 2016 Elsevier Ltd. This paper investigates the effectiveness of a sheet pile wall to reduce railway induced vibration transmission by means of field measurements and numerical simulations. At Furet, Sweden, a sheet pile wall has been installed in the soil near the track to reduce train induced vibrations in houses close to the track. The depth of the sheet piles is 12. m with every fourth pile extended to 18. m. The efficacy of the wall is ...
