To address the engineering problem of aggravated micro-pressure wave hazards at the portal of a 400 km · h-1 high-speed railway tunnel, this study investigates the radiation characteristics of micro-pressure waves under the coupled effects of actual terrain and buffer structures. Based on the three-dimensional unsteady compressible Navier-Stokes equations and the SST k-ω turbulence model, and using the tunnel equivalent diameter D (10 m) as the characteristic scale, the study systematically examines the radiation characteristics, including peak wave pressure, waveform, attenuation laws, and spatial directivity, of micro-pressure waves under conditions with and without buffer structures at the tunnel exit; it also studies simple flat terrain and semi-cut-semi-fill actual terrain. The results show that the buffer structure pre-radiates micro-pressure waves through side openings, effectively reducing the intensity of micro-pressure waves in the axial direction (directly in front of the tunnel alignment, azimuth θ=0°) at the tunnel portal. The buffer structure effectively reduces the peak value and alters the waveform at 2D, but causes an increase in peak value at 8D, and also enhances micro-pressure waves in lateral directions (e.g., θ=+45°, +90°). Terrain variation has a relatively weak influence on micro-pressure waves in the tunnel axis direction but significantly affects the areas on both sides: the peak micro-pressure wave at the cut (θ>0°) is greater than that on simple flat terrain, while the peak at the fill (θ<0°) is the lowest. The cut slope has a concentrating effect on micro-pressure waves in the area below the cut top, whereas the fill terrain disperses the propagation paths, leading to lower peak values. The attenuation rate of micro-pressure waves is smallest along the tunnel axis and accelerates significantly as the azimuth angle θ increases; for the same azimuth angle, the attenuation at the cut is greater than that at the fill. The directivity of micro-pressure waves is significantly influenced by the buffer structure and actual terrain. When the propagation distance reaches 5D, the influence of the buffer structure becomes negligible, and terrain dominates the directivity - simple flat terrain exhibits axial directivity, while the semi-cut-semi-fill terrain shows directivity in the [0°, +45°] interval due to the concentrating effect of the cut and the dispersing effect of the fill. The research results provide an important theoretical basis for optimizing and design of buffer structures and terrain treatment at the portals of 400 km/h high-speed railway tunnels.
