Clustering techniques applied to a high-speed train’s pantograph–catenary subsystem for electric arc detection and classification [PDF]
Assessment of the current collection properties of a pantograph–catenary system mounted on a train is of great importance. Excessive electric arcing can lead to wear of the system’s components, and, at the same time, it can be an index of wear status. In

Assessment of the High-frequency Response in Railway Pantograph-Catenary Interaction Based on Numerical Simulation [PDF]
The numerical model is a well-acknowledged tool to evaluate railway pantograph-catenary interaction performance. The current standard restricts most current simulation tools by a cut-off frequency of 20 Hz.

Electrical Characteristics of Pantograph Arcs in DC Railways: Infrastructure Influence [PDF]
Electric arcs are an unavoidable by-product of current collection by sliding contact in electrified transportation systems. Electric arcs are transient phenomena with implications for PQ measurements and wearing estimation and prevention of the sliding ...

Arcing detection method of metro pantograph based on improved yolov4-tiny
Arcing on metro pantographs contribute to the accelerated wear of pantograph strips and the catenary, imposing a serious safety risk to rail transit. For the problem of strong light interference and variable background in pantograph arcing detection for ...

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
