This paper aims to provide an overview of the present status of research in pantograph–
overhead line interaction and to outline future research challenges. A review of currently …

The pantograph-catenary system is used in modern electrified railways to power electric
trains. Common sense is that the increase of train speed leads to a deterioration of the …

Automatic inspections of overhead contact lines (OCLs) are developed to implement
anomaly detection during normal operation. It is an essential prerequisite for efficient …

Condition monitoring is very important in railway systems to reduce maintenance costs and
to increase the safety. A high power is needed for the movement of the electric train and …

In this paper, a different approach to the traditional literature review—literature systematic
mapping—is adopted to summarize the progress in the recent research on railway catenary …

In this paper, the application of wavelet transform to detect external leakage fault in hydraulic
actuators is described. This paper also examines the isolation of this fault from actuator …

The pantograph-overhead contact wire system is investigated by using an infrared camera.
As the pantograph has a vertical motion because of the non-uniform elasticity of the …

Predictive Maintenance, Prognostics and Reliability Centered Maintenance approach are
becoming more and more important in the railway sector to reduce costs of operation and to …

This study presents a robust condition monitoring and anomaly detection for pantograph-
catenary system. The pantograph overhead system is monitored by using a digital camera. A …

Currently, the detection equipment for offline arcing on high-speed trains is of great interest
because it can evacuate the contact state between the contact wire and the strip. In order to …
