• Source term - dependent on excitation, source impedance, mounting impedance, foundation impedance and surrounding lithology
• Transmission characteristics - dependent on geometry of source, geological characteristics (Lamé constants, loss factor, layering, water tables)
• Building response - consisting of coupling between foundations and the ground and the dynamic response of the building, and, in the case of re-radiated groundborne noise, the receiving room characteristics
• Receiver and support impedance. Receiver attitude.

Receiver Issues• Foundation coupling
• transfer functions• piled foundations• Structure response
• Power transmission through/up building• transmission line• floor impedances
– vary with location
• Receiver impedance• axes • support
– standing– chair– bed

Propagation Issues• Soil parameters
• on-site measurement• bore-hole tests• impedance of spherical source in an elastic
medium– departs from inverse-square law for velocity
• pressure and strain dependence of dynamic moduli
• Uncertainties– unknown features in lithology
• perched water tables• boulders/limestone layers

Propagation Issues• Many wave types
• body waves (dilatational)• shear waves• Rayleigh waves• Stoneley waves• Lamb waves• two-phase propagation
– liquid in a porous medium
– Wave conversion at interfaces• SV P• one layer may attenuate• several layers may increase propagation at eigenfrequencies• progressive change in soil may bend propagation path

Correct Source Data
• Source power– dependent on
– source impedance – source mounting/support
» resilient elements» dynamic stiffness - frequency dependence» loss factor - frequency dependence
• Source signal

Modelling• Empirical
– Extrapolating measurements from similar case– Statistical treatment of large numbers of measurements from many
cases• empirical methods of correcting for changes in parameters
• Algebraic– Isolator transmissibility– Simple distance function
• Numerical– Finite element (FEM)– Finite difference (FDM)– Boundary Element (BEM)– Hybrid (FEM/BEM)
