Summary
The main goal of this paper is to show a valid method to filter and double-integrate
acceleration data from a piezo-electric accelerometer installed in conventional
railway platforms. The experimentation site involved is located in the region of Lille
(northern France). Prospection tests were carried out at this site, including boreholes
to a depth of 10m and Panda tests (dynamic cone resistance) to a depth of 1.2m.
Accelerometers were installed in the interlayer of the platform. Acceleration data
was recorded during the circulation of different types of train. These acceleration
signals were then double-integrated in order to obtain the velocity and displacements
within this layer. Different filters were applied to obtain relevant displacement
results. Comparisons were made regarding different axial weights corresponding to
intercity, freight and TGV trains.
