Automatic Extraction of Droppers in Catenary Scenes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to present an automatic, image-based system for catenary maintenance, a novel application of machine vision which has no equivalent today. This study focuses on the detection of droppers in catenary staves. The system takes benefit from the fact that dropper location inside catenary staves follows mounting rules, an information that is integrated into a top-down approach in order to speed up and make reliable the extraction of droppers. Results obtained on a large database of real images are very satisfying and enable for continuing investigations for dropper fault

High-speed railway pantograph and catenary dynamic simulation system modelling and verification
The dynamic simulation system of a pantograph and a catenary has been built by using the finite element method, in which the pantograph is equivalent to a threemass-damper-stiffness system and the catenary contains only cable and beam elements. Considering droppers as nonlinear elements only stressed by tension, a sliding contact model of the pantograph and catenary is coupled by penalty functi...
