Abstract: Abstract The sliding contact between the pantograph and catenary allows the correct operation of electric trains. However, this contact induces wear on both the components involved in the process, namely the contact strip on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wear.2021.204103
Abstract: Abstract The design of a railway catenary is subject to multiple decisions regarding the geometry of the system. In particular, the horizontal geometry of the contact wire determines the evolution of the wear of the… read more here.
