Research of simulation and experiment on arc characteristics of gas mechanical switch
Abstract An arc is the high‐temperature discharge plasma produced in the opening process of mechanical switches, which directly affects the breaking capability of a hybrid DC circuit breaker. According to the physical mechanism of an electric arc, the construction of an arc model for simulation analysis is an important technical means in the electrical

Abstract When a high‐speed train approaches the insulated phase‐splitting section embedded between neighbouring power supply arms, the vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) installed on trains must be disconnected to maintain the traction power supply system as a no‐load condition for completing phase‐switching action, as the train passes through the phase ...

In this article, a novel quadruped robot with a reconfigurable sprawl posture and posture transformation strategy is proposed, which can transform between different sprawl postures to cope with complex environments such as narrow spaces, obstacles, and smooth/rough inclined surfaces, and adapt to a dorsal downward fall posture through reverse sprawling.

Fuzzy Integral Based Multi-Sensor Fusion for Arc Detection in the Pantograph-Catenary System [PDF]
The pantograph-catenary subsystem is a fundamental component of a railway train since it provides the traction electrical power. A bad operating condition or, even worse, a failure can disrupt the railway traffic creating economic damages and, in some ...

Cluster Analysis Based Arc Detection in Pantograph-Catenary System [PDF]
The pantograph-catenary system, which ensures the transmission of electrical energy, is a critical component of a high-speed electric multiple unit (EMU) train. The pantograph-catenary arc directly affects the power supply quality. The Chinese Railway High-speed (CRH) is equipped with a 6C system to obtain pantograph videos. However, it is difficult to

On the role of time‐of‐use electricity price in charge scheduling for electric bus fleets
Abstract As electric buses become increasingly popular, it is imperative to optimize the schedules of electric buses with explicit consideration of their charging requirements. Unfortunately, existing studies failed to properly model the impacts of essential operating factors, including the time‐of‐use (TOU) electricity price, partial charging, and ...

Plant interaction networks reveal the limits of our understanding of diversity maintenance
Current theories for understanding and predicting the maintenance of diversity in plant systems focus almost exclusively on competition. We describe plant–plant interaction networks in a diverse, empirical wildflower community co‐occurring under a range of environmental conditions.
