The vibration response of the track structure determines the level of its sound contribution to this noise. The method assumes that the vibration waves in the rail can be regarded as the superposition of two bending waves, one vertical and the other transverse, of the rail represented as a simple beam.
Although the track rail does not behave in this way over all the frequencies covered by the measurement, this simplification permits the "decay rates" to be measured for an estimation of the dynamic behaviour of the track which is one of the basic parameters influencing the generation of rolling noise. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for characterizing the dynamic behaviour of the structure of a track relative to its contribution to the sound radiation associated with the rolling noise. This European Standard describes a method for: a) acquiring data on mechanical frequency response functions on a track; b) processing measurement data in order to calculate an estimate of the vibration decay rates along the rails in an audible frequency range associated with the rolling noise; c) presenting this estimate for comparison with the lower limits of the decay rates. It is applicable for evaluating the performance of sections of reference tracks for measuring railway vehicle noise within the framework of official approval tests. The method is not applicable for characterizing the vibration behaviour of tracks on loadbearing structures such as bridges or embankments. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

NOTE 1
In this document, the term also refers to the mean spectral amplitude of the FRF in the form of a one-third octave spectrum. NOTE 2
In this standard, the term frequency-response function (FRF) is used to refer generically either to accelerance (accelerometric response/excitation force) or to mobility (speed response/excitation force). The term is not used to refer to receptance (dynamic compliance).
NOTE 3 The FRF is generally calculated as the interspectrum ratio between the response and the force with the autospectrum.
This estimate of the FRF is called estimate H1. NOTE 4 A set of FRF between a single excitation point and multiple response points or even between a single response point and multiple excitation points may be used.
In this standard, the case of a fixed accelerometer and a mobile instrumented excitation hammer is the easiest to implement.
3.2 accelerance complex ratio of the acceleration at one point in a mechanical system to the force at the same point or at a different point during a single harmonic motion (see also ISO 7626-1 and ISO 2041)
NOTE
Accelerance is an FRF currently expressed as a narrow-band complex spectrum.
It is also used in this standard to express a one-third octave spectrum.
3.3 mobility complex ratio of the speed at one point in a mechanical system to the force at the same point or at a different point during a single harmonic motion (see also ISO 7626-1 and ISO 2041)
NOTE
Mobility is an FRF currently expressed as a narrow-band complex spectrum.
It is also used in this standard to express a one-third octave spectrum.
3.4 direct FRF, FRF at the point of application FRF for which the response is measured at the same position (as close as possible physically with an impact hammer and an accelerometer) and the same direction (see also ISO 7626-1)
NOTE
In this standard, the term refers both to force and response FRF in the vertical and transverse directions. 3.5 transfer FRF FRF for which the response amplitude is measured at a different position to the force application point
NOTE In order to define the FRF, the direction and position of the application force and the response should be mentioned.

3.8 accelerometer position fixed position of the accelerometer(s) for which a complete set of FRF measurements is taken
3.9 structural wave
vibration wave that is propagated along the rail resulting in a deformation of the whole rail section
NOTE For example, vertical and transverse bending waves of the rail behaving like a beam or waves that involve deformation modes in the cross-section of the rail propagating along the rail.
The vibration waves with wavelengths that are smaller than the rail cross-section dimensions, such as the Rayleigh ultrasonic waves or the shear or compression waves in the material are not covered in the definition associated with the subject of this standard. 3.10 one third-octave band spectrum spectrum of the added squared values or the root mean squares of the FRF in each of the normal frequencies one-third octave band (see EN ISO 266).
