Researching Physics of Maglev Train Systems

[Josh1212]

Hi,
I was wondering if i could gt anyhelp with some research i was doing?

I'm looking at the Maglev train systems used in Japan, and some of the developing ideas in the USA and Germany.
What i was wondering is if anybody would be able to help me compile a list of all the physics concepts involved.

Thanking you in advance

Josh

I would start with classical mechanics and Maxwell's equations. Also look into magnetic bearings.
