AbstractPeriodic structures exhibit unique band gap characteristics by virtue of which they behave as vibro-acoustic filters thereby allowing only waves within a certain frequency range to pass through. In this paper, lateral and vertical flexural wave propagation and vibration control of a railway track periodically supported on rigid sleepers using fastenings are studied in depth. The dispersion relations in both lateral and vertical directions are obtained using the Floquet-Bloch theorem and the resulting dispersion curves are verified using finite element models. Afterwards, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) with different mass ratios are designed to control vibrations of the examined rail in both the directions. Moreover, the influence of damping of rail and resonators on band gap characteristics is investigated. As a replacement to the conventional TMD, a novel possibility to control vibration relies on using another existing rail as a lateral distributed resonator (LDR). Although the effectiveness of LDR is lower than that of localized resonators, the former represents a simple and promising way to control vibrations. Efficacy of the proposed control methods is finally verified by applying a random Gaussian white noise input. The study presented here is useful to understand the propagation and attenuation behavior of flexural waves and to develop efficient and novel vibration control strategies for track structures.
