The overall goal of SILVARSTAR is to provide the railway community with proven software tools and methodologies to assess the noise and vibration environmental impact of railway traffic on a system level.
This will be achieved through two workstreams, bringing to specific outcomes.
Work Stream 1 aims at developing a commonly accepted, practical and validated user-friendly prediction tool for ground vibration impact studies.
Work Stream 2 is fully dedicated to the development of an auralisation and visualisation tool, enhancing an existing prototype by integrating recent research results and creating an operational software.
