As a traditional numerical simulation method for pantograph?catenary interaction research, the pantograph?catenary finite element model cannot be applied to the real-time monitoring of pantograph?catenary contact force, and the computational cost require...

High-speed railway catenaries are vital components in railway traction power supply systems. To ensure stable contact between the pantograph and the catenary, droppers are positioned between the messenger wire and contact line. The failure of one or more...

As a new type of riser connecting offshore platforms and submarine pipelines, steel catenary risers (SCRs) are generally subject to waves and currents for a long time, thus it is significant to fully evaluate the SCR structure?s safety. Aiming at the dam...

At present, dry wellheads are usually adopted on small-storage TLP and SPAR platforms to develop offshore oil and gas because of the robust hydrodynamic performance under severe-wind seas. On the other hand, FPSO and FDPSO platforms that have a larger st...
