Dynamically substructured testing of railway pantograph/catenary systems [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2018
This paper presents a methodology for testing railway pantograph/catenary systems based upon the dynamically substructured system approach for combined physical and numerical components, originally developed by Stoten and Hyde. The main advantage of the dynamically substructured system is that it can provide more stable substructured testing than ...

Review of Catenary Icing on High‐Speed Railways: Characteristics, Impact and Countermeasures

open access: yesHigh Voltage, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 601-619, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The pantograph–catenary system (PCS) is the only path for electrified railway trains to acquire energy. Catenary icing during winter is a common natural phenomenon, which usually leads to the deterioration of the current quality and severely affects the operational safety of trains.

RESEARCH ON SEMI-ACTIVE CONTROL METHODS FOR STADDLE MONORAIL′S PANTOGRAPH WITH SLIDING MODE VARIABLE STRUCTURE (MT)

open access: yesJixie qiangdu, 2023
Staddle monorail use rigid catenary, which often produce strong rigid vibrations and violent fluctuations in contact forces affecting pantograph receiving quality and service life during operation.

Introduction of variability in pantograph-catenary dynamic simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Currently, pantograph-catenary dynamic simulations codes 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.

The Generating Mechanism and Suppression Measure of the ‘Wheel‐Rail’ Rolling Arc for Electrified Trains

open access: yesHigh Voltage, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 370-384, April 2026.
ABSTRACT As the ‘main blood vessel’ of the traction power supply system for high‐speed trains, the ‘wheel‐rail’ coupling grounding reflux system provides the vital channel to send traction current back to terrestrial substations; meanwhile, the rail track also plays a role in transmitting the train's occupancy signal to the control system. An insulated

A Study on the Vibration Characteristics and Damage Mechanism of Pantograph Strips in a Railway Electrification System

open access: yesMachines, 2022
This paper presents the vibration characteristics of a pantograph–catenary interaction in a rigid catenary system. Both computational simulation and laboratory tests are carried out to evaluate the frequency contents of pantograph strips.

Statistical identification of geometric parameters for high speed train catenary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Pantograph/catenary interaction is known to be strongly dependent on the static geometry of the catenary, this research thus seeks to build a statistical model of this geometry.

Modeling and Control of Rail Potential With Partial Backflow Obstruction in DC Metro Systems

open access: yesIET Electrical Systems in Transportation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Running rails are employed as the reflux conductor in DC metro systems, whose longitudinal resistance and joint resistance usually increase with the operating years of the system. Subsequently, the partial backflow obstruction occurs, which will greatly increase rail potential (RP) and endanger the security of the metro line operation. In this paper, a

Development of a hybrid simulation method for current collection systems, using a real-time multi degree-of-freedom catenary model

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
This paper provides a hybrid simulation (HS) system for pantograph/catenary systems based upon the dynamically substructured system (DSS) method. HS consists of a physical pantograph, an actuator to excite the pantograph head and a real-time simulator ...
