 Vibration Effect

As per clause 7.3.3 of [IR8], a metro vehicle having a vertical resonance frequency of 12Hz or less is sufficient to control the
levels of ground-borne vibration. Thus, metro system recommends a vertical resonance frequency of metro stock to be less
than 8 Hz.

Frequency analysis of the track structure is done to find the natural frequency of the system which is an important criteria for
the control of vibration produced by the moving train.

The calculation is based on basic principles:

natural frequency, f0 = (1/2π)*√(keq/m)

Where,
Natural frequency of the system (Hz) f0
Equivalent dynamic stiffness of the track (N/m) keq
Mass of the structure (kg/m) m

Total Mass of Structure = 1959.7+1131.5

= 3091.2 kg

Self Weigth of Slab/m (Depth 420 mm) = (1*2.4*0.420)*25

= 25.2*1000/9.81
= 2568.81
= 2568.8 kg

Total Mass of Structure = 4528.5 kg

1/keq = 1/Kfas,7 + 1/KSupport

Equivalent Track Stiffness keq = 92.36 kN/mm

= 92360000 N/m

Natural frequency of Slab (185mm thick) f0 = 27.4837211841 Hz 172.8536

Natural frequency of Slab (420mm thick) f0 = 22.7071119131 Hz 142.812

The vertical resonance frequency of the moving train is much less than the natural frequency of the track system. The
resonance frequency of the train shall not match the natural frequency of the track system which would cause resonance
increasing the amplitude of vibration. As the natural frequency of the track system is more than the frequency of metro train,
it can be said that the resonance frequency of the moving train will never exceed the natural frequency of the plinth.
Moreover the resonance frequency prescribed by RDSO is for the train moving at maximum speed. At station locations, the
speed shall be much less. Thus, the effect of vibration shall not be considered for the design of plinth.

 Vibration Analysis

As per clause 7.3.3 of [IR8], a metro vehicle having a vertical resonance frequency of 12Hz or less is sufficient to

AMPLIFICATION ZONE

Assumed Damping ratio for Fastener ξ = 0.3

Dynamic Magnification factor at Fastener level D = 1

√(1-r2)2+(2rξ)2
= 1.04
Dynamic Magnification factor at Fastener level D = 1
√(1-r2)2+(2rξ)2
= 1.197
Thus the DMF for ξ = 0.05 and r = 1 D = 1.67

The DAF at resonance is much higher than the maximum value. For moderate damping, the
difference between the approximate actual DMF at resonance and exact maximum DMF is negligible.
