Study on numerical simulation method and dynamic force of dropper of a catenary system

The dropper through bends and bears dynamic impact load before and after the train passes in actual service, which has an important impact on the fatigue life of the dropper. In this paper, a simulation model which can simulate the interaction between pantograph and catenary is established by using...
