Compared to the current eddy braking patterns using a single magnetic source,hybrid excitation rail eddy brakes have many advantages,such as controllability,energy saving,and various operating models.Considering the large braking power consumption of the high-speed train,a hybrid excitation rail eddy brake system,which is based on the principle of electromagnetic field,is proposed to fulfill the needs of safety and reliability.Then the working processes of the mechanical lifting system and electromagnetic system are demonstrated.With the electromagnetic system analyzed using the finite element method,the factors such as speed,air gap,and exciting current have influences on the braking force and attractive force.At last,the structure optimization of the brake system is discussed.

A switched-mode unit used in electric locomotive generates a strong high frequency conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI),which radiates electromagnetic energy through railway lines.Evaluation of magnetic field using analytical technique based on contour integral is presented,in order to assess the electromagnetic environment around a high-speed railway.Actual railway multiconductor finitely long overhead lines are represented by an infinitely long single line above two-layered earth,whose characteristic is different from homogeneous earth.Owing to the constraint of the GB/T 24338-2009 and the high frequency investigated (a few MHz),only the magnetic fields are examined.The magnetic fields consist of four components:the direct wave,the ideal reflected wave or image wave,the trapped surface wave,and the lateral wave.The calculation results proved that due to the presence of the trapped surface wave,the magnetic field of the observer point on the interface is strongly influenced,when the line is on or closed to the interface.
