RUMBA R öhren- U ntergrund- M agnetschwebe- Ba hn) (Tube Underground Magnetic Levitation Railway) A Universal Transport System of the Future (deutsche Version) Design Study Contents: The vision The problem The three most important demands The solution ... And now ... The vision: I am on the balcony of my hotel downtown Munich. Yesterday I arrived here and had a calm night. The window was wide open the whole night, fresh spicy air was always to be felt. How beautiful this city is. The silence is overwhelming. Before the hotel is a large park, where in former times there was a road. Birds twitter in the air, one hears children somewhere, who play unimpaired. In the distance I hear sheep. Was the porter right, when he said to me that one of the three city shepherds would come by this morning with his herd? Now they come around the corner. A picture of joy. I quickly get my video camera to capture this scene. This evening, I will show the pictures to my daughter. I have only a little time, until I have to be at a conference at the head office. To cross the city will take me only about eight minutes. How could humans let themselves be so stressed over so many decades by car traffic? How long it took to end this stress. Now that the new transportation network is almost continuous, one hardly can imagine, how difficult it was in former times to get to work by car, the tram or with the railway.

Wangjianshuo's blog Events (in Shanghai) that affect my life (and others') Home Home ... next Pudong Airport Maglev in Depth by Jian Shuo Wang @jianshuo ) on August 9 , 2003 under Maglev Believe me. This article is the most in depth one on the topic of Maglev of Shanghai Pudong Airport . I have talked about Maglev before in these two articles: Maglev Operates in Shanghai and Ticket for Maglev Tour . Here are the Maglev pictures I always planned to take. Below: Before I see the real Maglev train on the rail, the large advertisement of Maglev on the way out of PVG (Pudong Airport) has attracted my attention. SIEMENS is famous in China but the name of ThyssenKrupp was heard only when Maglev is mentioned. I believe most passengers will see this Maglev advertisement when they just get into a cab or his car and drive out of PVG. Maglev Leaving Station I walked across a long way from the Departure Hall of PVG to the rail road of the Maglev line. Below is the entrance of the station for the Maglev trains. The two guard asked me to stay away from the rail road politely. They said there will be no train today. Obviously, they were lying just to keep me away from the Maglev rail. Just before I turned and started to go away, a Maglev train started from the station and headed to downtown Shanghai. I quickly pointed the camera and took the picture below (My first Maglev picture). The head of the train just got out of the station.

Diamagnetic levitation Magnetic levitation Mk I I am working on potential exhibits for the Gravity Discovery Centre in Gingin, Western Australia, as part of an 'antigravity' display. The GDC is the public interface for the Australian International Gravitational Observatory which is part of a worldwide effort to detect elusive gravity waves. (click to enlarge) It works! (After a week of adjusting and testing) A NIB magnet with some metal pipe is supported motionless, 1 inch below the coil. "..look Ma, no hands.." The circuit uses two linear Hall effect devices at either end of an electromagnet. The circuit senses a difference in the two outputs which should cancel regardless if the coil is switched on or off. An approaching magnet disturbs this balance and this this output is fed to a PWM (pulse width modulated) supply for the MOSFET output to the coil. Conditions are set so that there is an equilibrium is setup with the weight of the magnet and the electromagnet at a certain point where it will hover. Hmmm.. magnetism opposing gravity - sounds like 'antigravity' to me...

DOT Home About DOT DOT Jobs News ... Five Year Strategic Plan Magnetic Levitation Technology Deployment Program Print Magnetic Levitation Technology Deployment Program In 1998 Congress passed the "Transportation Equity Act for the 21 st Century" making available more than $ 218 billion over a six year period for surface transportation assistance to states and localities. Section 1218 of this Act created a National Magnetic Levitation Transportation Technology Deployment Program. The program is administered by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), a unit of the Department of Transportation. The objective of  the program is to demonstrate high speed maglev technology in commercial service through a project of about 40 miles in length, so that it can be considered later in the century for implementation in a longer distance intercity corridor application. As provided for in Section 1218, federal funding consists of $55 million for preconstruction planning to identify the most promising project through a competitive process , and up to $950 million for final engineering and construction of the guideway of the one selected project. The Federal funds for planning and construction must be matched 1/3 to 2/3 by state, local, or private contributions. To be eligible for Federal construction funding, each project must demonstrate that operating revenues will exceed operating costs, and total benefits will exceed total costs over a 40-year period. Applications for projects were solicited from states or their designated authorities, and in May 1999 seven projects were selected to participate in a one-year program of preconstruction planning needed to identify the most promising project. Sponsors of the following projects were given planning grants: Los Angeles, CA; Cape Canaveral, FL; Atlanta, GA to Chattanooga, TN; New Orleans, LA; Baltimore, MD to Washington, DC; Las Vegas, NV to Anaheim, CA; and Pittsburgh, PA.

Home About Us Visuals Vote ! ... Travel Time Maglev - what is it? And is it relevant? Magnetic levitation transport, or maglev, is a modern form of transportation that suspends, guides and propels vehicles (especially trains) via electromagnetic force. This High-Tech method can be significantly faster than wheeled mass transit systems, potentially reaching velocities comparable to turboprop and jet aircraft (550 to 700 km/h) in regular service. Maglev trains are important transport systems for the future perspectives of regions, nations and states. They can create important location advantages. Maglev systems represent a revolutionary transport innovation. At the same time, they can also function as a technology development platform (e.g., superconductors, new materials). They can, in certain cases, bring positive economic benefits through the optimization of spatial networking, travel time reduction and resource efficiency. A meaningful use of the technology also brings collective social advantages as well as a good image and prestige. The city of Shanghai, China, where Transrapid has been in use since 2003 for high-speed airport-to-downtown transport, uses these advantages intensively and markets them aggressively. Each maglev system has its own advantages that can be applied for different uses, e.g., in high-speed passenger and freight transport (containers) or as a local urban commuter system.

79. Perspective On Maglev Transit And Intro Of The PRT Maglev Galen J. Suppes, Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, The University of Kansas. http://faculty.washington.edu/~jbs/itrans/suppes.htm

A Perspective on Maglev Transit and Introduction of the PRT Maglev by Galen J. Suppes The University of Kansas 4006 Learned, Lawrence, KS 66045-2223 (913) 864-3864, FAX (913) 864-4967 email: gsuppes@cpe.engr.ukans.edu ABSTRACT A critical review of maglev trains and convention wheeled trains was presented in an attempt to identify performance advantages of maglev. Traditionally claimed advantages of maglev were not found to hold up to wheeled train systems incorporating similar non-contacting propulsion; however, performance advantages were identified for velocities greater than 500 mph (805 km/hr). At these high velocities, travel at atmospheric pressure is not practical, and so, an analysis was made for applications in tubes of reduced pressures. The feasibility of a personal rapid transit (PRT) system designed with maglev suspension and for travel in tubes of reduced pressure was evaluated. The PRT maglev would have superior service capabilities yet no obvious technological barriers. An economic comparison to maglev train systems suggested that the PRT maglev costs about 40% less while providing appeal to a broader audience. Proposed performance advantages of the PRT maglev include reduced energy consumption, reliance on electrical power, and significantly reduced transit times as compared to air or train systems. A practical approach to implementation is presented and consists of initially using lower velocities, higher tube pressures, and PRT vehicles connected as train units. Proposed evolution of the system includes attaining higher velocities and incorporating superconductive elements in the rail embodiments.
