Modelling and simulating the atypical features of switch engine current curves

February 2023 | Thorsten Neumann, Judith Heusel, Miguel del Alamo Ruiz, Daniela Narezo Guzmán, Susanne Reetz

The current curves of point machines are a good indicator for identifying and analysing any faults in electro-mechanical switches. The mathematical representation of current curves based on their statistical and geometrical features is therefore essential for the ongoing digitalisation and automation of processes such as condition monitoring and fault diagnosis. This contribution presents recent results with regard to current curve modelling and discusses the chances and challenges of synthetically generating data using feature-oriented models for normal and abnormal current curves...
