Vibration from underground railways : considering piled foundations and twin tunnelsKuo, Kirsty Alison January 2011 (has links)
Accurate predictions of ground-borne vibration levels in the vicinity of an underground railway are greatly sought after in modern urban centers. Yet the complexity involved in simulating the underground environment means that it is necessary to make simplifying assumptions about this system. One such commonly made assumption is to ignore the effects of nearby embedded structures such as piled foundations and neighbouring tunnels. Through the formulation of computationally efficient mathematical models, this dissertation examines the dynamic behaviour of these two particular types of structures. The effect of the dynamic behaviour of these structures on the ground-borne vibration generated by an underground railway is considered. The modelling of piled foundations begins with consideration of a single pile embedded in a linear, viscoelastic halfspace. Two approaches are pursued: the modification of an existing plane-strain pile model; and the development of a fully three-dimensional model formulated in the wavenumber domain. Methods for adapting models of infinite structures to simulate finite systems using mirror-imaging techniques are described. The interaction between two neighbouring piles is considered using the method of joining subsystems, and these results are extended to formulate models for pile groups. The mathematical model is validated against existing numerical solutions and is found to be both accurate and efficient. A building model and a model for the pile cap are developed, and are attached to the piled foundation. A case study is used to illustrate a procedure for assessing the vibration performance of pile groups subject to vibration generated by an underground railway. The two-tunnel model uses the superposition of displacement fields to produce a fully coupled model of two infinitely long tunnels embedded in a homogeneous, viscoelastic fullspace. The significance of the interactions occurring between the two tunnels is quantified by calculating the insertion gains that result from the existence of a second tunnel. The results show that a high degree of inaccuracy exists in any underground-railway vibration prediction model that includes only one of the two tunnels present.

The effect of boundary layer blowing in the corner region of a linear compressor cascade wind tunnelJames, Ralph William 09 May 2009 (has links)
A fundamental investigation of the flow in the endwall corner region of a linear compressor cascade wind tunnel and the effect of boundary layer blowing in this region was conducted using blade surface pressure tap measurements and five - hole prism probe measurements taken downstream of the cascade. The results are presented as a series of velocity vector plots, loss contour plots, and pitchwise mass - averaged loss coefficient plots. The angle of attack test range was from 5 to 29 degrees.
For the corner region boundary layer blowing investigations, two slots were machined into the ends of a set of cascade blades, and an external air source was used as the blade slot jet air source. Tests were done for 19, 21, and 23 degrees angle of attack. The main effect of corner boundary layer blowing was a significant reduction in total pressure losses in the region along the blade span between the exterior portion of the corner boundary layer flow and the blade profile boundary layer flow. / Master of Science

Design and Calibration of a Three Component, Single Element, Wind Tunnel Force BalanceTisdel, Victor W. 01 January 1975 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this paper was to design a simplified wind tunnel force balance for use in elementary aerodynamics/wind tunnel laboratory courses. The applied loads and moments were determined to be as follows: The design lift force is ± 20 lbs, the design drag force is ± 10 pounds, the design pitching moment is ± 20 inch-pounds. The force balance output accuracy was arbitrarily set at ± 5% since this would be sufficient for preliminary student work. The results of this work are as follows: The force balance is fabricated from a single bar of 2024 aluminum, machines and bent into an "L" shape, the applied forces and moments are sensed by strain gages bonded to machined surfaces on the bar, the output of the strain indicator equipment is transformed into uncorrected forces and moments by a system of three equations, the uncorrected forces and moments are transformed into true forces and moments by a system of force balance interaction equations, the design values for lift, drag, and pitching moment remain the same as originally proposed, the output error in lift is determined to be ± 3.5%, the output error in drag and pitching moment are determined to be ± 10%. The prototype has been in use for several months and its operation has been completely satisfactory.
