Nonlinear seismic behaviors of different boundary conditions of transmission line system under earthquake loading are investigated in this paper. The transmission lines are modeled by cable element accounting for the nonlinearity of the cable. For the suspension type, three towers and two span lines with spring model (Model 1) and three towers and four

To obtain the best operating conditions in a railway infrastructure, as the pantograph/catenary system, is a priority issue in modern railways, for a correct management and the best performance of this infrastructure. Although most of the published works on this subject are oriented to solving dynamic problems, in order to successfully address these ...

The behavior of power transmission tower‐line system subjected to spatially varying base excitations is studied in this paper. The transmission towers are modeled by beam elements while the transmission lines are modeled by cable elements that account for the nonlinear geometry of the cables.

Hardware in the Loop Test‐Rig for Identification and Control Application on High Speed Pantographs
Trains current collection for traction motors is obtained by means of a sliding contact between the overhead line (OHL) and the collector strips mounted on the pantograph head. The normal force by which the collector presses against the contact wire ensures the contact pressure for the electrical contact.

Development of scalable coastal and offshore kelp farming for marine biomass production
Abstract The US DOE/ARPA‐E MARINER program funded a 4‐year project to determine an optimal way to grow kelps in large, nearshore and offshore arrays for the eventual purpose of biofuel production with the goal of keeping the cost below $80 USD per dry metric ton of kelp.

Analysis and Solutions for Pantograph-Catenary Abnormal Wears
[Objective] Severe abnormal wear of PC (pantograph-catenary) systems can lead to the breakage of contact wires and the collapse of the overhead network, directly causing power supply interruptions and potentially triggering traffic accidents.

Metros are predominantly equipped with low-elasticity overhead rigid catenaries, which can easily lead to poor pantograph-catenary relationship. In recent years, abnormal wear has occurred frequently between the pantographs and catenaries in metro ...
