How to Build a Simple Maglev Train Model for a Research Project?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on building a simple physical model of a maglev train for a research project, emphasizing the need for mechanical structure, mathematical modeling, and simulation assistance. Participants share insights on materials, suggesting lightweight options like balsa or aluminum to reduce magnetic strength requirements. One contributor mentions previous experience simulating maglev systems in MATLAB using root-locus techniques and seeks further guidance on this method. The project aims to demonstrate functionality and support a research paper, with requests for thesis papers from established experts in the field. Overall, the conversation highlights collaboration and resource sharing for successful project development.

I am working on a project of maglev train and want to build its physical model(as simple as it works) just to give an idea that this project is in working condition and also some mathematical modeling that will help me in my research paper
So please if anyone can help me in this project I will be very thankful

Especially if anyone can give me help in mechanical structure, mathematical modeling, simulation and if anyone can provide me thesis papers of well known doctors of the world

Sounds like fun! That's one thing that I've never thought of building, but I look forward to some brainstorming about it. To start with, welcome to PF. You've come to the right place.
I can't help with any math stuff, but if I can ever manage to get to my own computer I can sketch up some stuff and post it. To start with, I'd recommend making it as light as possible (balsa, aluminum, etc.) to minimize the amount of magnetic strength required. That would include using high strength:weight ratio permanent magnets if you can afford them.

While being in college i have simulated (dynamics, stability, etc ...)a MagLev Train in Matlab using the root-locus-technique. I don't know if you know this ?

thanks that you read my thread

now if you know about the simulation of this project then please let me know that how i can do it

yes but what technique are you using for the simulation ? What have you seen on this in class ?

i am working on the type of germany maglev system means attraction from forward side and repulsion from back side(basically it's attractive system)
if you have worked on root-locus-technique then provide it to me
 
Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
