A Response Spectrum Analysis of Wind Deflection in Railway Overhead Contact Lines Using Pseudo-Excitation Method

The wind deflection of overhead contact lines (OCLs) challenges the stable and safe operation of electrified railways. The steady wind causes the static deflection of the contact line, while the fluctuating wind leads to the OCL buffeting. This paper performs a response spectrum analysis of the wind deflection caused by the combined effects...

Short Circuits of a 10 MW High Temperature Superconducting Wind Turbine Generator

Direct drive high temperature superconducting (HTS) wind turbine generators have been proposed to tackle challenges for ever increasing wind turbine ratings. Due to smaller reactances in HTS generators, higher fault currents and larger transient torques could occur if sudden short circuits happen at generator terminals. In this paper, a finite...
