Abstract: The vibration mechanism of railways and urban rail transit is highly intricate, particularly within the railway environment. This study employs a variety of vertical stiffness damping pads to develop an integrated damping system for a floating slab. Through optimization of damper stiffness and arrangement, the modal characteristics of the floating slab are analyzed, resulting in a reduction of the inherent frequency of the track structure and attenuation of vibration transmission. Subsequently, this damping system is implemented in an actual engineering project to assess its effectiveness. The findings indicate that lower stiffness in the vibration isolation pad corresponds to a smaller inherent frequency for the floating slab, thereby enhancing its damping efficacy. Utilizing elastic supports for vibration isolation pads within the track structure can mitigate upper structure vibrations induced by trains.
