Maglev Train

"Either a clever man or a brave man lies in the trace of history waiting for the future train to cross him." - President Dwight Eisenhower. Magnetic levitation train is a new type of train which floats above the track using magnets and reduces friction. Magnetic levitation can reach 310 miles per hour (500 km / h) and people can move on land faster than before. Researchers create a Maglev model to see which system, EMS or EDS will improve efficiency. Efficiency is measured by the ratio of train weight to time across the track.

MAGLEV train is a means of transportation including magnet science, meaning future transportation technology. What is the MAGLEV train? MAGLEV stands for "Maglev", it moves using magnetic force. This technology seems to be very futuristic, but its history can be traced back to the 20th century! It did not start in 1909, but an American rocket scientist named Robert Goddard thought about a transportation system vehicle that was interrupted at high speed transportation. French engineer Bachelet also built a model train using the same design as today. Even though these early scientists thought of this idea, they could not find a way to carry out this type of transport.

Applying magnetic levitation (magnetic levitation) technology to transport networks around the world may seem like a futuristic idea, but since 1984 a train running on a magnetic levitation system is running. In 2015, the speed of Japanese linear motor cars exceeded 600 km / h, but researchers at Southwest Jiaotong University in China are testing prototypes of ultra high speed bullet trains based on magnetic levitation technology. The Super Maglev train uses the same basic technology as the previous version, except for the next generation transmission innovation that can reduce air friction and speed by using a vacuum tube. As traditional magnetic levitation projects are still under consideration in major cities in the US and Asia, these trains will be operated in the coming years.

In 2016 China began the first local linear motor car in Changsha and transported passengers from the South Station to the airport at a maximum speed of 100 km / h. Last year, the first linear motor car in Beijing was also running at home, driving at 100 km / h.

Shanghai is a very cool way to go to the airport, this is a 500 km / h linear motor car! There is only one problem for a train from anywhere! In a strange plan, this super high speed linear motor car ends in 20 minutes from the city center. So, going to the station by bus, taxi or subway is not that fast.
