An investigation into the aerodynamic characteristics of catenary contact wires in a cross-wind [PDF]
, 2001 An experimental analysis of the aerodynamic characteristics of catenary contact wires is presented. The aerodynamic data obtained were used to calculate the Glauert-Den Harthog criterion for one-dimensional galloping.

Reduced-order modelling of vortex-induced vibration of catenary riser [PDF]
, 2009 A new reduced-order model capable of analyzing the vortex-induced vibration of catenary riser in the ocean current has been developed. This semi analytical-numerical approach is versatile and allows for a significant reduction in computational effort for

Vulnerability Analysis of Catenary-Bridge-Track System
Shock and Vibration, 2023 Continuous welded rails on bridges are extensively employed in high-speed railways, where trains are predominantly electrically powered, and the open-air catenary represents the weakest link in the system.

Numerical investigation of the behaviour of bolted and welded top and seat angle connection in progressive collapse of steel structures [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 After failure of a column in structure by an abnormal loading, undesirable performance and damage of connections of the beams connected to the top of this column, can lead to the local failure of floor and in turn result in progressive collapse in the ...

An investigation into the mechanical damping characteristics of catenary contact wires and their effect on aerodynamic galloping instability [PDF]
, 2003 Measurement of the damped oscillation of a section of the UK East Coast Main Line (ECML) catenary/contact wire system was undertaken, and the natural frequency and mechanical damping were found to be 1.4Hz and 0.05 respectively. This information was used

Progressive Collapse Resistance of RC Beam–Slab Substructures Made with Rubberized Concrete
Buildings, 2022 Abnormal loads can produce localized damage that can eventually cause progressive collapse of the whole reinforced concrete (RC) structure. This might have devastating financial repercussions and cause numerous severe casualties.
