Abstract
Metro-induced vibration and structural secondary noise are becoming increasingly outstanding, which greatly restrict the further development of TOD (Transit-oriented development) project. To solve this problem, an evaluation methodology and dynamic model of vibration and secondary noise induced by metro train is developed firstly. Then the characteristic and distribution of vibration and secondary noise of the TOD subject to running train are studied. Finally, the control effect of steel-spring floating slab track (FST) on vibration and secondary noise of TOD project is evaluated. Results show that: when evaluating environmental problem caused by metro train, the standard of secondary noise is more strict than that of vibration. Main frequency of metro-induced vibration is concentrated in 40–63 Hz, and the second main frequency is concentrated in 6.3–16 Hz. The business building has the largest vibration due to its closest distance to the metro line. Secondary noises of most of the TOD buildings exceed the limit value, and the maximum exceeding value is 11.7 dB(A). FST is effective in controlling train-induced vibration and secondary noise of TOD buildings. FST cannot reduce vibrations in full frequency band, and vibration in some frequency bands are even amplified according to the stiffness of steel spring.
