1. 1. Vehicle dynamics modelling of electromagnetic suspensions for MAGLEV applications

   University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

   Author : Léa Chatelais; [2024]
   Keywords : MAGLEV; Dynamics; Requirements; Suspension; Vehicle modeling; MATLAB; MAGLEV; Dynamisk; Fordran; Upphängning; Fordon modell; MATLAB;

   Abstract : MAGnetic LEVitation Guidance System (MAGLEV) technology was commercially introduced relatively recently in the guided transport field. It is based on removing the wheels and rails of classic railway systems and supporting and guiding the train with magnets and magnetic forces instead. READ MORE

3. 2. A Novel Two-Level Inverter Design for Efficient Energy Conversion in a Maglev Train Rail

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

   Author : Oskar Zetterström; Stefan West Westholm; [2023]
   Keywords : IGBT; Inverter; Gate-driver; Prototype; Pulse width modulation; Sine wave; Maglev train; IGBT; Växelriktare; Grinddrivenhet; Prototyp; Pulsbreddsmodulering; Sinusvåg; Maglevtåg;

   Abstract : This report covers the construction of a prototype inverter system designed to power the rail of a maglev train, from component selection through simulations and power demands to mounting and wiring the components into a cabinet. The inverter is made with insulated gate bipolar transistors controlled with pulse-width modulated signals provided by a custom microcontroller. READ MORE

4. 3. Maglev deployment in winter climate

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Axel Thorstrand; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : As of year 2020, maglev train systems are not in service in areas with harsh winter climate. Compared to conventional railway, the technology is relatively new and untested in conditions of low temperatures, icing and snow. READ MORE

5. 4. Vertal HEX : Mobility for the future vertical cityscape

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Designhögskolan vid Umeå universitet

   Author : Simon Turac; [2020]
   Keywords : vertical mobility; future mobility; magnetic levitation; interior design; exterior design; vehicle design;

   Abstract : The project originated with the question "What is the future of urban mobility?" and the counterquestion "What is the future of urbanity?". To understand the future of mobility, we first need to try to understand more of the future context where it'll reside. READ MORE

6. 5. Scheduling of Maglev Elevators : Simulating multiple elevator cars in a two shaft system.

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för datavetenskap och kommunikation (CSC)

   Author : Jesper Simonsson; Janne Selkälä; [2015]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Elevator systems have been quite similar for more than a hundred years and it has only quite recently become more feasible to have elevators being able to switch shafts allowing the construction of a system with more than two elevator cars in a single shaft. Such a system is to be constructed and tested during 2016 and functions using magnetic levitation technology. READ MORE
