Based on the measurement of the vertical velocity of ground surface vibration caused by CRH trains running on viaduct and embankment of Hu-Ning Intercity Railway, the characteristics and propagation attenuation rules of the ground surface vibration of two routes are analyzed. The result shows that the main frequency of ground surface vibration caused by the CRH trains running is less than 80Hz, which belongs to low frequency vibration. The number of carriages has little effect on ground surface vibration intensity. The effect of train speed for 153km/h to 201km/h on ground surface vibration intensity has no obvious difference. With the increased distance between the ground surface and the track, the main frequency of ground surface vibration on viaduct decreases, and the attenuation curve of peak value of ground surface vibration velocity becomes smoother. However, the main frequency of ground surface vibration on embankment is nearly unchanged and the attenuation curve of peak value of ground surface vibration velocity has several rebound regions of the vibration. Ground surface vibration intensity of viaduct is higher than that of embankment. The drainage trench built beside the embankment has vibration isolation effect on ground surface vibration.

Filtering Effect

One trench for agricultural irrigation next to the Hu-Ning Intercity Railway viaduct section were tested and analyzed in order to obtain the effect of ground vibration isolation when CRH trains run on. The result shows that with the decreasing train speed, the peak value of ground vibration velocity decreases and the main frequency of ground vibration heightens. Trench has lowpass filtering effect on ground surface vibration. The slower the train speed, the better the effect of isolation, but the phenomenon that ground surface vibration increases before trench is more obvious. When the length of trench is much longer than the length of train, the number of carriages has little effect on vibration isolation effect of the trench. When railways are built, consulting with nearby residents and department of agriculture, and the trench’s length, depth, breadth and the distance to railway should be designed reasonably. And then the trench in addition to meet need of irrigation, but also has very good effect on vibration isolation.

Abstract A torsion vibration isolator composed of oblique springs with high-static-low-dynamic stiffness (HSLDS) is proposed to attenuate the transmission of torsion vibration along the shipping shaft in this paper. It is good at in low frequency vibration isolation as it can significantly reduce the resonance frequency of the system with the same load capability. Firstly, the model of HSLDS torsion vibration isolator is introduced in this paper. Secondly, the non-dimensional torsion stiffness is formulated using mechanics theory, and the HSLDS characteristic of designed torsion vibration isolator is verified. Finally, the torque transmissibility is analyzed using the Increment Harmonic Balance (IHB) method, and the effects of the system parameters on it are analyzed. The results show that the resonant frequency increases accordingly as the stiffness ratio and the excitation torque are increased. However, the peak value of the torsion transmissibility is decreased as the damper ratio increasing.

The maximum ground surface vibration locates at the shallow position along tunnel cross section. The surface vibration velocity main vibration frequency has more than one advantage frequency, main vibration frequency concentration distribution in 20～40Hz low frequency band. Tunnel driving, the emphasis of the blasting vibration should focus on control of tunnel excavation area has the upper, lining structure and shallow buried in the influence of the surrounding rock; Tunnel through the surface buildings, cannot ignore already forming of blasting seismic effects of tunnel amplification and resonance effect.

Coupling Characteristics

The extreme sensitivity of a scanning probe microscope demands an exceptional noise cancellation device that could effectively cut off a wide range of vibration noise. Existing commercial devices, although excellent in canceling high frequency noise, commonly leave low frequency vibration unattenuated. We design an add-on active stage that can function together with a standalone existing active stage. The objective is to provide a higher level of noise cancellation by lowering the overall system cut-off frequency. This study is concerned with the theoretical aspects of the coupling characteristics involved in stacking independently designed stages together to form a two-stage isolator. Whether an add-on stage would pose a stability threat to the existing stage needs to be addressed. In addition, we explore the use of coupling effects to optimize the performance of the overall system.

Nonlinear isolators with high-static-low-dynamic-stiffness have received considerable attention in the recent literature due to their performance benefits compared to linear vibration isolators. A quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) isolator is a particular case of this type of isolator, which has a zero dynamic stiffness at the static equilibrium position. These types of isolators can be used to achieve very low frequency vibration isolation, but a drawback is that they have purely hardening stiffness behavior. If something occurs to destroy the symmetry of the system, for example, by an additional static load being applied to the isolator during operation, or by the incorrect mass being suspended on the isolator, then the isolator behavior will change dramatically. The question is whether this will be detrimental to the performance of the isolator and this is addressed in this paper. The analysis in this paper shows that although the asymmetry will degrade the performance of the isolator compared to the perfectly tuned case, it will still perform better than the corresponding linear isolator provided that the amplitude of excitation is not too large.

Abstract In this research, we aim to combine origami units with vibration-filtering metastructures. By employing the bistable origami structure as resonant unit cells, we propose metastructures with low-frequency vibration isolation ability. The geometrical nonlinearity of the origami building block is harnessed for the adjustable stiffness of the metastructure’s resonant unit. The quantitative relationship between the overall stiffness and geometric parameter of the origami unit is revealed through the potential energy analysis. Both static and dynamic experiments are conducted on the bistable origami cell and the constructed beam-like metastructure to verify the adjustable stiffness and the tunable vibration isolation zone, respectively. Finally, a two-dimensional (2D) plate-like metastructure is designed and numerically studied for the control of different vibration modes. The proposed origami-based metastructures can be potentially useful in various engineering applications where structures with vibration isolation abilities are appreciated.

Vibration Wave

The propagation and attenuation rule of blasting vibration wave parameters is the most important foundation of blasting vibration prediction and control. In this work, we pay more attention to the influence of the damage accumulation effect on the propagation and attenuation rule of vibration wave parameters. A blasting damage accumulation experiment was carried out, the ultrasonic wave velocity of the specimens was measured, and the damage value was calculated during the experiment. The blasting vibration wave was monitored on the surface of the specimens, and its energy was calculated by using the sym8 wavelet basis function. The experimental results showed that with the increase in the number of blasts, the damage continues to increase; however, the vibration velocity and the main frequency decrease continuously, the unfocused vibration wave energy in the zone near to the blasting source is rapidly concentrated in the low-frequency band (frequency bands 1 to 3), and the energy is further concentrated in the low-frequency band in the intermediate zone and zone far from the blasting source. There is a distortion process in which the vibration velocity and the main frequency increase slightly and the energy of the blasting vibration wave converges to the high-frequency band (the 5th band) before the sudden unstable fracture failure of the specimens. The experimental results indicate that the prediction and evaluation of blasting vibration should consider the variation rule of blasting vibration wave parameters synthetically based on the cumulative damage effect, and it is not safe to use only one fixed vibration control standard for the whole blasting operation.
