The much-ballyhooed magnetic levitation train line project linking Tokyo with Nagoya has been stuck in limbo since Shizuoka Prefecture refused to allow construction for what could be one of the ...

Japan’s cutting-edge Maglev train is set to redefine high-speed rail, reaching speeds of 500 km/h by using superconducting magnetic levitation. This video explores the advanced technology behind the ...

They are all that is left of a bold experiment to create Britain’s first full-sized magnetic levitating train, an experiment which succeeded in its aim and demonstrated its train at 170 miles ...

A proposed high-speed train from Baltimore to Washington would harm a national park, a national wildlife refuge, the Chesapeake Bay and numerous nearby communities — and charge expensive ticket prices ...

China Railway will use magnetic levitation (maglev) technology to zip passengers through vacuum tubes faster than they have ever gone. The magnets on the train are able to interact with the ...

A cup filled with water demonstrated the extent of shaking when the maglev train was running at very high speed. Before magnetic levitation occurs, the train runs on wheels, giving off a unique sound.

The world's first carbon fiber metro train launched in China, boasting reduced weight, energy consumption, and carbon ...

A Maglev is a vehicle based on the principles of magnetic levitation ... This is used to push the train up to speed, as well as slow it down for braking.

students investigate a maglev train and the electromagnetic forces that cause a maglev train to levitate and provide the source of propulsion for the train. The students use models and micro:bit ...

An inventor traces the evolution of a single engineering idea, from Michael Faraday’s first motors to levitating trains ...

Traditional maglev trains require continuous electrical power to maintain their magnetic fields, but the new system developed by OIST requires power only at start-up. Once the initial magnetic ...

Japan's experimental magnetic levitation train sets another world speed record at 374 miles per hour, but isn't set to enter service for another dozen years. The island nation's experimental ...
