ELECTRIC VEHICLES AND POWER SUPPLIES FOR HIGH-SPEED RAIL TRAFFIC

ELEKTRISCHE FAHRZEUGE UND ENERGIEVERSORGUNG FUER SCHIENENSCHNELLVERKEHR

This article describes rail dynamics at high speeds and the bearing these have on the design, power, running gear and brakes of electric traction stock. The increased powers required for high-speed vehicles are examined, and the necessary changes in the overhead contact line with respect to elasticity and conductance described.
