Accounting for the influence of the free surface on the vibration response of underground railway tunnels: A new iterative method
( KU Leuven - Departement Werktuigkunde , 2020 , Conference)This paper presents a new method for calculating the ground-borne vibration from shallow underground railways. The method is based on an iterative wave-scattering approach, which decouples the problem into two sub-systems: ... -
The fictitious force method for efficient calculation of vibration from a tunnel embedded in a multi-layered half-space
( Elsevier , 2014 , Article)This paper presents an extension of the Pipe-in-Pipe (PiP) model for calculating vibrations from underground railways that allows for the incorporation of a multi-layered half-space geometry. The model is based on the ... -
A mixed space-time and wavenumber domain model for predicting ground vibration from railway tracks
( National Technical University of Athens , 2015 , Conference)In this paper, a mixed model for studying ground vibration generated from surface railway tracks is presented. A ballasted track with nonlinear resilient components is modelled in the time domain using the Finite Element ... -
The PiP model and progress in ground vibration from railways
( Australian Acoustical Society , 2017 , Conference)Vibration in the ground causes problems. At large amplitude vibration causes damage, the most obvious example being earthquake damage. But the ground motion in a damaging earthquake is typically low-frequency (below 1Hz) ... -
Experimental validation of a numerical model for the ground vibration from trains in tunnels
( DC/ConfOrg , 2015 , Conference)Ground vibration and ground-borne noise from trains in tunnels are attracting increasing attention from researchers and engineers. They are important environmental issues related with the operation of underground networks ... -
Effect of rail unevenness correlation on the prediction of ground-borne vibration from railways
( DC/ConfOrg , 2015 , Conference)This paper presents the influence of rail unevenness correlation on the predicted track and ground vibration. The study is based on an integrated railway model in the wavenumber-frequency domain with varying complexity ... -
Modelling the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction in a multi-layered half-space
( DC/ConfOrg , 2015 , Conference)Within the context of railway ground-borne vibration, the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction remains an area that has not been sufficiently investigated. Whilst a number of researchers have scrutinised the vibration response ... -
A comprehensive review of power flow controllers in interconnected power system networks
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Article Review)Energy security is one of the most crucial factor in the development of any nation. Interconnections among different power system networks are made to lower the overall price of power generation as well as enhance the ... -
A Novel Modified Switched Inductor Boost Converter with Reduced Switch Voltage Stress
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)Recently, switched inductor (SI) and switched capacitor techniques in dc-dc converter are recommended to achieve high voltage by using the principle of parallel charging and series discharging of reactive elements. It is ... -
Non-Isolated DC-DC Power Converter with High Gain and Inverting Capability
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Article)As the voltage gain of converter increases with the same ratio, the current gain also increases, this increase in current gains will affect the size of the input and the output capacitor. To reduce the ripple in the input ... -
A high efficiency and high reliability single-phase modified quasi Z-Source inverter for non-isolated grid-connected applications
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference)Quazi Z-Source inverter (qZSI) is a promising inverter topology that can buck or boost input voltage without a DC-DC converter and hence can be used in transformerless configuration. This is a high efficiency solution ... -
Rethinking urbanism in Doha : The Qatar National Museum transit-oriented development
( Henry Stewart Publications LLP , 2021 , Article)The urban environment of Doha has witnessed a remarkable transformation during the past few decades, which has been triggered by economic growth due to oil and gas revenues. Doha has attracted foreign investment to participate ... -
Strategies for the urban regeneration of the Museum of Islamic Art Park in Doha, Qatar
( Henry Stewart Publications LLP , 2023 , Article)Doha has witnessed rapid urban growth, an increasing population rate and a greater reliance on cars as the primary mode of transport. This has caused social and environmental problems related to a sprawling urban pattern, ... -
A social-ecological perspective for emerging cities: The case of Corniche promenade, “urban majlis” of Doha
( EnPress Publisher, LLC , 2022 , Article)In the past decade, the capital city of Doha of the State of Qatar has experienced rapid urban expansion and other changes due to globalization, which has caused (i) the loss of a compact urban pattern, (ii) landscape ... -
An urban regeneration-placemaking strategy for the Qatar National Museum and Souq Waqif’s transit-oriented development in Doha, State of Qatar
( Henry Stewart Publications LLP , 2023 , Article)In the past 20 years, the State of Qatar has undergone rapid urban growth. Doha, the capital city, has capitalised on large-scale urban and infrastructural projects to strengthen and diversify its economy. The transport ... -
Towards a knowledge-hub destination: analysis and recommendation for implementing TOD for Qatar national library metro station
( Springer , 2023 , Article)During the past two decades, Qatar, a developing country, has invested heavily in infrastructure development to address several challenges caused by the rapid urbanization. Qatar has made a significant step toward its urban ... -
Sustainable Status Assessment of the Transit-Oriented Development in Doha’s Education City
