NUMERICAL ANALYSIS TECHNIQUE USING THE STATISTICAL ENERGY ANALYSIS METHOD CONCERNING THE BLASTING NOISE REDUCTION BY THE SOUND INSULATION DOOR USED IN TUNNEL CONSTRUCTIONS

Abstract

 The main method to reduce the blasting charge noise which occurs in a tunnel under construction is to install the sound insulation door in the tunnel. However, the numerical analysis technique to predict the accurate effect of the transmission loss in the sound insulation door is not established. In this study, we measured the blasting charge noise and the vibration of the sound insulation door in the tunnel with the blasting charge, and performed analysis and modified acoustic feature. In addition, we reproduced the noise reduction effect of the sound insulation door by statistical energy analysis method and confirmed that numerical simulation is possible by this procedure.
