Methodology for vibration and noise control using modular rail particle damper in rail transit systems

Abstract

Disclosed is a novel methodology for vibration and noise control using modular rail particle damper in rail transit systems, which comprises steps: determining a target damper module corresponding to a vibration frequency content of a rail system, multiple target damper modules are adopted; connecting target damper module by adopting a connecting module so as to form a rail particle damper; and installing rail particle damper at rail web to conduct vibration and noise control on the rail system. Target damper modules are connected through connecting modules to form an integrated rail particle damper, a wide vibration mitigation frequency range is formed by adopting different target damper modules, and therefore rail particle damper is suitable for reducing broadband vibration and noise generated in rail systems under different operating environments.
