Analysis of a diagnostic system for railway overhead line automatic regulation

Marcantonio Catelani, Lorenzo Ciani, Valeria Scarano

Abstract

The increase number of high speed trains needs an high reliable and available railway overhead line. Because of the elevated train speed increases the wear failures, with possible railway track interruptions. Therefore it’s necessary to identify failures modes and correlated effects to improve the railway network availability and safety features as well as maintenance and renewal costs. This strictly depend on the appropriate use of diagnostic methodologies: the traditional approach of cyclic maintenance needs to be replaced by more efficient approaches, such as on-condition and predictive maintenance.
