  2. Magnetic levitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_levitation

    Magnetic levitation can be stabilised using different techniques; here rotation (spin) is used. Magnetic levitation (maglev) or magnetic suspension is a method by which an object is suspended with no support other than magnetic fields. Magnetic force is used to counteract the effects of the gravitational force and any other forces. [2]

  3. Electromagnetic suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_suspension

    Floating globe. Magnetic levitation with a feedback loop. Electromagnetic suspension (EMS) is the magnetic levitation of an object achieved by constantly altering the strength of a magnetic field produced by electromagnets using a feedback loop. In most cases the levitation effect is mostly due to permanent magnets as they have no power ...

  4. Inductrack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductrack

    Inductrack is a passive, fail-safe electrodynamic magnetic levitation system, using only unpowered loops of wire in the track and permanent magnets (arranged into Halbach arrays) on the vehicle to achieve magnetic levitation. The track can be in one of two configurations, a "ladder track" and a "laminated track".

  5. Halbach array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halbach_array

    The magnetic flux distribution of a linear Halbach array may seem somewhat counter-intuitive to those familiar with simple magnets or solenoids. The reason for this flux distribution can be visualised using Mallinson's original diagram (note that it uses the negative y component, unlike the diagram in Mallinson's article). [ 4 ]

  6. Electrodynamic suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_suspension

    Unlike configurations of simple permanent magnets, electrodynamic levitation can be made stable. Electrodynamic levitation with metallic conductors exhibits a form of diamagnetism, and relative permeabilities of around 0.7 can be achieved (depending on the frequency and conductor configuration). Given the details of the applicable hysteresis ...

  7. Electrodynamic wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodynamic_wheel

    An electrodynamic wheel is a type of wheel proposed for use in electrodynamic levitation of the maglev train transport system. [1] [2] [3]Unlike a conventional wheel, an electrodynamic wheel has a rim studded with magnets of alternating poles.

  9. Meissner effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meissner_effect

    The samples, in the presence of an applied magnetic field, were cooled below their superconducting transition temperature, whereupon the samples cancelled nearly all interior magnetic fields. They detected this effect only indirectly because the magnetic flux is conserved by a superconductor: when the interior field decreases, the exterior ...
