| Summary: | Vibrations induced by traffic are of concern for the slope stability of the open-pit mine. Different solutions to mitigate this phenomenon are under investigation. In the field of pavement engineering, the so-called antivibration paving technologies are under investigation in order to avoid the generation of excessive vibration and contains propagation. To more fully examine the effectiveness and potential of the antivibration pavement in the application of vibration absorbing for the open-pit mines, numerical simulations based on a two-dimensional (2D) finite element (FE) model were conducted. Sensitivity analysis of varying monitored points and varying loads are performed. Several important parameters such as the damping layer position and thickness and damping ratio are evaluated as well. By using this FE simulation to model the vibration response induced by traffic, the costly construction mistakes and field experimentation can be avoided. |
