Railway Noise and Vibration
ID: 174633
David Thompson
Railways are an environmentally friendly means of transport and well suited to modern society. However, noise and vibration are key obstacles for further high-speed intercity traffic, for freight and for suburban metros and light-rail. All too often noise problems are lacking in understanding of the problem.
This book brings together noise and vibration problems from railways. Each source of noise and vibration is described in a systematic way: rolling noise, noise, noise, noise, ground noise and noise.
. Theoretical modeling approaches for each source in a tutorial fashion
. Practical applications of noise control technology
. Extensive examples of application for noise reduction techniques are included
Railway Noise and Vibration is a hard-working reference and can be invaluable to anybody who is working in the consulting or academic research industry.
David Thompson is a Professor of Railway and Research Institute at Sound and Vibration Research, University of Southampton. He was responsible for the development of rolling noise in 1980, with British Rail Research in Derby, UK, and TNO Institute of Applied Physics in the Netherlands.
* Discusses fully the theoretical background
* Includes the latest research findings, brought together in one place
* Forms an extended case study in the application of noise control techniques
Introduction; Introduction to Rolling Noise; Track Vibration; Wheel Vibration; Excitation by Roughness; Sound Radiation from Wheels and Track; Mitigation Measures for Rolling Noise; Aerodynamic Noise; Curve Squeal; Impact Noise; Bridge Noise; Low Frequency Ground Vibration; Ground-Borne Noise; Vehicle Interior Noise; Appendix

Catch the wind, feel the salt breeze, take to the seas or go island hopping in the stunning Ocean Beauty Yacht by Ugears. This DIY wooden model sailing vessel is a beautiful static model, with two gleaming white paper sails, and comes with its own sturdy stand for display on your shelf, mantle or desk. The model is somewhat different from other Ugears mechanical models in that the Yacht doesn\'t have gears and isn\'t propelled by a spring or rubber band motor—it\'s rather meant as a handsome display piece for your home or office decor.
