Influence of tire-derived aggregates mixed with ballast on groundborne vibrations

论文摘要

In this paper, the use of recycled tire-derived aggregates(TDA) mixed with ballast material is evaluated in order to reduce the train-induced ground-borne vibrations. For this purpose, a series of field vibration measurements has been carried out at an executed pilot track.The prepared ballast layer was mixed with different percentages of TDA in three sections. Moreover, another test section with pure ballast is considered as a reference. The vibrations generated by a motor-powered draisine at two different speeds are then recorded. Records of vibration data are provided using four seismometers placed once longitudinally and once transversely beside different sections. The outputs are then processed in both velocity–time and velocity–frequency domains. To verify the vibration mitigation performance of TDA in real operation conditions, field measurements under the passage of two planned passenger and freight trains are finally arranged. Results show that the best TDA mixture ratio, i.e., 10% by weight,can reduce the transmitted vibrations up to 12 dB for frequencies above 31.5 Hz. According to the obtained effi-ciency and the very low cost of the recycled materials, this solution can be considered as a competitive vibration countermeasure.
