Railway system influence

Hello everyone!

My experience of EMTP usage is connected to investigation of electric railway system influence on metal structures located nearby railway overhead lines. I found that EMTP is the appropriate software program for railway system modelling, current distribution analysis (interfering current) and induced voltage calculation.

Compared with other similar software program, EMTP is easier to use: the user friendly desktop calculation allows fast modelling, calculation time is shorter and possibilities of result analysis are excellent.

I am interested in exchanging experience on this particular topic. Your comments and questions are welcomed.

Induced voltage calculation was explained in our paper published on Int. conferences:

Milešević, Boško; Haddad, Noël; Estimation of current through human body in case of contact with pipeline in the vicinity of a 50 Hz-electrified railway, EMC Europe 2013, Bruges, Belgium, 2013

Now, I am preparing a PhD thesis in this area.
