Abstract
Harmonic distortions in DC third rail systems can cause overheating of electric motors and transformers. Single-tuned filters and shunt active harmonic filters (SAHFs) are often used to mitigate the harmonic distortions. However, there is a lack of studies on the effects of train dynamics on harmonic distortions. This paper aims to investigate the influence of dynamic train behaviors for a DC third rail system and provide recommendations for the design of single-tuned filters and SAHFs to mitigate the harmonic distortions. The traction power supply system of a DC third rail system in Malaysia is modeled using ETAP-eTraX and MATLAB-Simulink software for the investigation. The ETAP-eTraX software is used to accurately compute the dynamic behavior of the train, while MATLAB-Simulink allows for the assessment of the impact of train behavior on the rail track, as well as the harmonic effect of the railway power network on the train. The findings showed that the SAHF exhibits strong adaptability and superior filtering performance compared to the single-tuned filter in addressing dynamic harmonic distortion in traction power supply systems. This study emphasizes the significance of incorporating harmonic mitigation devices, particularly for managing dynamic harmonic distortion based on actual train consumption patterns.

Article types:
• Papers. Reports of original research work.
• Design notes. Brief contributions on current design, development and application work; not normally more than 2500 words (3 journal pages), including descriptions of apparatus or techniques developed for a specific purpose, important experimental or theoretical points and novel technical solutions to commonly encountered problems.
• Rapid communications. Brief, urgent announcements of significant advances or preliminary accounts of new work, not more than 3500 words (4 journal pages). The most important criteria for acceptance of a rapid communication are novel and significant. For these articles authors must state briefly, in a covering letter, exactly why their works merit rapid publication.
• Review articles. These are intended to summarize accepted practice and report on recent progress in selected areas. Such articles are generally commissioned from experts in various field s by the Editorial Board, but others wishing to write a review article may submit an outline for preliminary consideration.
