Abstract

Open trenches are an effective means of vibration mitigation, but they cannot be established in practice. When the trenches are covered by a concrete pavement, part of the efficiency may be lost. However, the present analysis indicates that barriers of this kind may still lead to a significant reduction of the horizontal and vertical vibrations caused by traffic at a nearby road or railway.
