Capability and Limitations of a Tuned Mass Damper for a 15‐MW Semisubmersible Floating Wind Turbine

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Large floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) under coupled aerodynamic and hydrodynamic loading exhibit broadband low‐frequency response in addition to the platform‐pitch resonance. Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) have been studied for a range of applications, but their net benefit under fully coupled operational conditions has not been quantified.

A Fast Simulation Model of Pantograph–Stitched-Catenary Interaction in Long-Distance Travel

Applied Sciences
The increasing operation speed of high-speed trains allows the pantograph to continuously interact with the catenary over a long distance in a short time, and many new methods have been developed to efficiently calculate its dynamics.

Fire resistance of trapezoidal sheeting connected to a concrete beam

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 2479-2482, September 2026.
Abstract Cold‐formed steel trapezoidal sheeting bending resistance degrades significantly in fire due to the small thickness of the profiles. The response can subsequently transition to catenary action, which develops only with sufficient restraint from fasteners. Fasteners therefore often govern the fire performance. In the presented study, connection

Defect Diagnosis of Rigid Catenary System Based on Pantograph Vibration Performance

Actuators
The condition of a catenary is significant to ensure a high current collection quality. Owing to the dynamic interaction between the pantograph and the catenary system, the vibration of the pantograph can be used to analyze the condition of the catenary ...

Simplified dynamic analysis of structures exhibiting catenary actions under column removal

ce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 288-293, September 2026.
Abstract Accidental actions can impose on structures substantial loading demands. Improper design could lead to a partial or complete progressive collapse. Ensuring that sufficient alternative loading paths are available in the structure, the occurred loads could be safely redistributed.

Introduction of variability into pantograph–catenary dynamic simulations [PDF]

, 2014
Currently, pantograph-catenary dynamic simulations are mainly based on deterministic approaches. However, the contact force between catenary and pantograph depends on many key parameters that are not always quantified precisely and can vary in time and ...

Mechanical Response and Dissipation of Progressively Fractured Annealed Laminated Glass Elements Under Large Cyclic Displacements

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
This article investigates the post‐fracture bending response of 2‐ply laminated (LG) samples composed of annealed (AN) glass and bonded by EVA or SG interlayers. Attention is given to the effect of partial and total glass fracture, and to the cyclic response of fractured LG specimens under large displacements.
