By MAGLEVs, we mean here magnetically levitated vehicles:
Magnetic levitation means controlled suspension and guidance by means of electromagnetic (attraction) or electrodynamic (repulsion) forces. Magnetic levitation may be performed by dedicated d.c.-fed controlled electromagnets—with or without PM assistance—in attraction force MAGLEVs (Chapter 20) or in dc superconducting magnets (or PMs) with air-core active damping coils (Chapter 21). The airgap between the vehicle (platform) and the active guideway has to be dynamically controlled, around rated airgap gm, by ± 25%; ...
