Experimental and Simulation Study on the Relationship Between Interior Noise of Metro Cab and Rail Corrugation

doi:10.3901/JME.2019.16.141

Abstract

Abstract: The acoustic environment of the metro cab is very important for driver's health and even traffic safety. The main source of the interior noise of the cab is the wheel/rail noise, since the location of the cab is just above the bogie. Furthermore, the serious rail corrugation is very common in the metro system, which will enhance the wheel/rail noise and have a great effect on interior noise of the cab. As we all know, there is a positive correlation between the interior noise and the rail corrugation, but the quantitative relation is unclear yet. So, it is of great significance for the interior noise control to have an insight in the relationship between interior noise and rail corrugation. A combination method of field test and simulation is adopted in this study to analyze the effect on interior noise caused by rail corrugation and the quantitative relation between them.

Key words: interior noise, metro cab, rail corrugation, wheel/rail noise
