“…On the other hand, analytical models are usually devoted for the prediction of vibrations in free-field and their application is limited for simple geometries [3]. Therefore, numerical approaches can be faced as the method of choice when versatility is a requirement, allowing the inclusion of whole system, from the source to the building, including re-radiated noise prediction [4,5] In the scope of numerical approach, Fiala et al [6] used a decoupled approach to assess the vibration response of the building. This approach considers a weak coupling between the tunnel/soil and the building/soil systems.…”
