This is especially the case in Scotland, where popular culture led to development Scotland’s tourism industry. In this article, we will describe phenomenon media-related Scotland with respect three selected studies within Scotland: First, Glenfinnan Viaduct, m...

Abstract This contribution presents the results of numerical simulations in which a high-pier viaduct under lateral and vertical non-stationary spatially variable seismic ground motions is crossed by an articulated high-speed train at several speeds. The spectral representation method employed to generate required number acceleration time-history series each support location railway studied. Wa...

The acoustic performance of a nearly-enclosed prototype meant to attenuate urban rail transit (URT) noise was measured in situ on an existing line. is constructed viaduct Line 1, Ningbo, China, with 2-meter-wide opening at the top. A series measurements while trains passed by were carried out twelve receiver positions site without and prototype. Train speeds using piezoelectric acceleration sen...
