But most of them were carried out with the condition that the tunnel’s ratio of length and diameter (x/D) is under 1000. Recently, the process that compression wave convents into shock wave in the overlong tunnel has also been paid attention. In this paper, features of shock wave as it propagates through a overlong tunnel is investigated, rupturing thin films at the entrance to obtain three kinds of shock wave with different intensities. Then study their features respectively during they propagates through a overlong tunnel with x/D over 6000 at most. Comprehend shock wave more deeply by comparing the results of experiments.展开更多

This pressure wave propagates to the tunnel exit and spouts as a micro-pressure wave, which causes an exploding sound. From the fact that the ballast track tunnel has smaller noise than the slab track tunnel, we have suggested a new inner tunnel model to decrease the noise of the micro-pressure wave, using the ballast effect. Experimental and numerical investigations are carded out to clarify the attenuation and distortion of propagating compression wave over porous plate wall in a model tunnel. Data shows that the strength of the compression wave and a maximum pressure gradient of the compression wave was weakened. These data shows the possibility of the present alleviative method using the porous plate wall in a tunnel.展开更多
