  2. Magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

    Maglev, or magnetic levitation, is a system of transportation that suspends, guides and propels vehicles, predominantly trains, using magnetic levitation from a very large number of magnets for lift and propulsion.

  3. List of maglev train proposals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_maglev_train_proposals

    San Juan – Caguas: A 16.7-mile (26.9 km) maglev project has been proposed linking Tren Urbano's Cupey Station in San Juan with two proposed stations to be built in the city of Caguas, south of San Juan. The maglev line would run along Highway PR-52 connecting both cities. According to American Maglev Technology (AMT), who is the company in ...

  4. Maglev - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maglev

    Transrapid 09 at the Emsland test facility in Lower Saxony, Germany A full trip on the Shanghai Transrapid maglev train Example of low-speed urban maglev system, Linimo. Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of rail transport whose rolling stock is levitated by electromagnets rather than rolled on wheels, eliminating rolling resistance.

  5. Inductrack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductrack

    Inductrack (or Inductrak) was invented by a team of scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, headed by physicist Richard F. Post, for use in maglev trains, based on technology used to levitate flywheels. [1] [2] [3] At constant velocity, power is required only to push the train forward against air and electromagnetic ...

  6. Magnetic river - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_river

    Magnetic river is an electrodynamic magnetic levitation (maglev) system designed by Fredrick Eastham and Eric Laithwaite in 1974. It consists of a thin conductive plate on an AC linear induction motor. Due to the transverse flux and the geometry, this gives it lift, stability and propulsion as well as being relatively [vague] efficient. The ...

  7. Levitation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levitation_(physics)

    A magnetically levitated (maglev) train departing Shanghai Pudong International Airport on the first commercial high-speed maglev line in the world. Magnetic levitation is in development for use for transportation systems. For example, the Maglev includes trains that are levitated by a large number of magnets. Due to the lack of friction on the ...

  8. Electromagnetic suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_suspension

    Since a maglev requires a guiding rail, it is mostly used in railed transport systems like trains. Since the first commercial maglev train was opened in Birmingham, England in 1984, other commercial EMS maglev train systems, such as the M-Bahn and the Transrapid have also been put into limited use.

  9. skyTran - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SkyTran

    The "Maglev skyTran" topic quoted a number of skyTran and personal rapid transit ideas, such as passengers exiting and boarding at off-line elevated "portal" stops while high-speed traffic continues to speed by on its main line.
