About the Author
Xiaozhen Sheng completed his Ph.D. in 2001 at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR), University of Southampton, and stayed there as a research fellow until 2004. At ISVR, he developed the two-and-half dimensional finite and boundary element method for modelling ground vibration generated from railways. He then spent ten years in the industry, first for Cummins Turbo Technologies Co. Ltd in the UK and then for Hunan Tyen Machinery Co. Ltd in China, working on turbomachinery noise and vibration. In the end of 2014, he joined State Key Laboratory of Traction Power, Southwest Jiaotong University, supervising M.Sc. and Ph.D. students to research on every aspect related to railway noise and vibration. He has worked on a number of multi-million projects sponsored by China’s Ministry of Science and Technology and National Natural Science Foundation and China Railway, supporting the development of China’s high-speed railways.
David Thompson graduated in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge in 1980 and received his Ph.D. from the ISVR, University of Southampton in 1990. He joined the ISVR as a lecturer in 1996 and became a professor of Railway Noise and Vibration in 2004. He is a fellow of the Institute of Acoustics and fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Professor Thompson is a leading international expert in the field of railway noise and vibration. His research covers many aspects of this field including rolling noise, squeal noise, ground vibration and aerodynamic noise. He has supervised 46 Ph.D. students to completion and published over 200 refereed journal papers and over 250 conference papers. In 2018, he was awarded the Institute of Acoustics Rayleigh Medal for outstanding achievements in acoustics.
Geert Degrande is professor at the Department of Civil Engineering of KU Leuven in Belgium. He obtained his master and PhD degree in 1986 and 1992 from KU Leuven. He was avisiting researcher at Princeton University in 1989 and postdoctoral researcher at Ecole Centrale de Paris in 1994. He became assistant professor in 1995 and full professor in 2005. He was head of the Department of Civil Engineering from 2008 until 2016 and presently is head of the Structural Mechanics Section. He was Visiting Fellow at Peterhouse and Academic Visitor at the Department of Engineering of the University of Cambridge during the Michaelmas Term 2022. He is teaching courses on theory of elasticity and plasticity, dynamics of structures, wave propagation and vibration in the built environment, and non-linear structural analysis. His main research interests are structural dynamics, dynamic soil-structure interaction, elastodynamics, computational mechanics, and inverse problems. Emphasis is going to vibration problems in the built environment due to road and railway traffic, industry and construction activities, using both numerical and experimental methods. He has supervised 20 PhD students to completion and published over 110 refereed journal papers and over 280 conference papers.

Terms of sale
General Terms and Conditions and Customer Information / Privacy Policy
I. General Terms and Conditions
§ 1 Basic provisions
(1) The following terms and conditions apply to all contracts that you conclude with us as a provider (AHA-BUCH GmbH) via the Internet platforms AbeBooks and/or ZVAB. Unless otherwise agreed, the inclusion of any of your own terms and conditions used by you will be objected to
(2) A consumer within the meaning of the following regulations is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that can predominantly be attributed neither to their commercial nor their independent professional activity. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity who, when concluding a legal transaction, acts in the exercise of his independent professional or commercial activity.
§ 2 Conclusion of the contract
(1) The object of the contract is the sale of goods.
(2) If an article is listed by us at AbeBooks or ZVAB, the activation of the offer page at AbeBooks or ZVAB constitutes the binding offer to conclude a contract under the conditions contained in the article page.
(3) The contract is concluded via the online shopping cart system as follows:
The goods intended for purchase are stored in the "shopping cart". Via the corresponding button in the navigation bar you can call up the "shopping cart" and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the personal data as well as the payment and shipping conditions, all order data will be displayed again on the order overview page.
Before sending the order, you have the option of checking all information again, changing it (also via the "back" function of the Internet browser) or cancelling the purchase.
By submitting the order via the "Buy now" button, you declare the acceptance of the offer in a legally binding manner, whereby the contract is concluded.
(4) The processing of the order and transmission of all information required in connection with the conclusion of the contract is partly automated by e-mail. You must therefore ensure that the e-mail address you have stored with us is correct, that the receipt of the e-mails is technically ensured and, in particular, that spam filters do not prevent it.
§ 3 Right of retention, retention of title
(1) You can only exercise a right of retention if it concerns claims from the same contractual relationship.
(2) The goods remain our property until full payment of the purchase price.
§ 4 Warranty
(1) The statutory warranty rights exist.
(2) In the case of used goods, the warranty period is one year from delivery of the item, deviating from the statutory regulation. The shortening of the deadline does not apply:
- culpably caused damages attributable to us from injury to life, limb or health and in the case of other damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence;
- insofar as we have fraudulently concealed the defect or have assumed a guarantee for the quality of the item.
(3) As a consumer, you are requested to check the item immediately upon delivery for completeness, obvious defects and transport damage and to inform us and the freight forwarder of any complaints as soon as possible. If you do not comply with this, this will have no effect on your statutory warranty claims.
§ 5 Choice of law, place of performance, place of jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply. In the case of consumers, this choice of law shall only apply insofar as this does not withdraw the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the state of the consumer's habitual residence (principle of favourability).
(2) The place of performance for all services arising from the existing business relationships with us as well as the place of jurisdiction is our registered office, insofar as you are not a consumer, but a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU or if the domicile or habitual residence is not known at the time the action is brought. The right to appeal to the court at another statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected by this.
(3) The provisions of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall expressly not apply.
