- This paper outlines the first ever machine-learning-based method to predict railway ground-borne vibration levels. It has made it possible to account for the presence of variable soils during vibration scoping studies, which is one of the most important factors in vibration propagation. The approach is complementary to our other investigations (e.g. DOI:10.1016/j.soildyn.2018.07.046) and together, they were used by Ineco to inform vibration abatement measures on the Madrid-Barcelona high speed rail line in 2018. It is currently being directly applied in a Leverhulme prize research grant (PLP-2016-270).
