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

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. Based on the observation that irregular wear is characterized...
