Abstract

The paper presents the application of the pantograph-overhead contact line interaction simulation, which is carried out to assess the fulfillment of the essential interoperability requirements for the interoperability component, which is the overhead contact line. According to the paper's authors, carrying out model validation according to the EN 50318:2002 standard indicated in the technical specification for interoperability does not exhaust the question of the correctness of the method used. This fact is also confirmed in the literature discussed in the paper. To substantiate the above thesis, a numerical simulation was carried out in MATLAB/Simulink using a two-mass model of the pantograph and overhead contact line. As a result of the sensitivity analysis of the influence of the input data on the simulation results, conclusions were formulated to confirm the thesis in question.
