3. 2. Active Control of the Pantograph-Catenary Interaction in a Finite Element Model

   University essay from KTH/Järnvägsteknik

   Author : Raphael Schär; [2013]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This work analyzes the implementation of an active train pantograph in a full finite element model in the program Ansys. As controller design method, the H∞ method was taken in order to cope with the different uncertainties in the given system. The focus lies on the contact force between the pantograph and the catenary. READ MORE

4. 3. Innovative active control strategies for pantograph catenary interaction

   University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

   Author : Roberto Tieri; [2012]
   Keywords : Active control; pantograph catenary interaction; actuator;

   Abstract : The pantograph - catenary interaction is one of the most important features in high speed trains, and to guarantee a reliable current collection is the target that every railway system must take into consideration in order to speed up trains. The problem that goes against this direction is mainly the variation of the overhead equipment's stiness. READ MORE
