“…Tao et al [ 20 ] and Ding et al [ 21 ] researched tribology behaviours of a carbon strip and copper wire under electric currents. Many of the presented studies work mainly on the mathematical methods of simulation of dynamic [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ] and analysis of contact force [ 6 , 7 , 9 , 19 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ], as well as on the wear of sliding strip material [ 20 , 21 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. The papers focus on material properties and the interaction between sliding strips and catenary.…”
