Summary

Researchers have developed a predictive model to estimate the attenuation of vibrations caused by urban trams, addressing concerns about structural stress on historic buildings. The study, conducted in Rome's historic center, identified key parameters influencing tram-induced vibrations and their propagation. By analyzing experimental data, the team derived a transfer function that estimates attenuation levels in historical urban contexts. This model provides valuable insights for preserving cultural heritage sites while managing modern urban infrastructure challenges.
