  • It is not easy to apply new algorithm to the vehicle under driving test because the principle and moving characteristic of Magnetically Levitated Train(Maglev) developed in KIMM have been not easily analyzed yet. So, in this paper the small-scaled Maglev which can experiment economically and analyze moving-characteristic is proposed. Proposed small-scaled Maglev have the same principle and function as that of Maglev but it is smaller than real system at the ration of 1 to 7.

  • Applying the magnetically levitated transportation system, which is noncontact bearing system, to solve the problems such as transformation of original form or flaw of iron plate caused by transportation of thin iron plate which required high quality as body of motor vehicle, materials of electronic devices etc.. Magnetic saturation phenomena caused by thickness of iron plate and gap size between magnets. In case of iron plate, the vibration mode will be considered since vibration occurs during transportation. In order to solve the problems caused by vibration, choose the levitation system method using numbers of magnet, magnetic saturation for thickness and length of iron plate with parameters in location and gap of magnet. In this paper, we will suggest the whole design technique of magnetically levitated transportation system, namely method of magnetic attraction and transportation system

  • This paper presents a framework of nonlinear dynamic analysis of a low-speed moving maglev (magnetically levitated) vehicle subjected to cross winds and controlled using a clipped-LQR actuator with time delay compensation. A four degrees-of-freedom (4-DOFs) maglev-vehicle equipped with an onboard PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller traveling over guideway girders was developed to regulate the electric current and control voltage. With this maglev-vehicle/guideway model, dynamic interaction analysis of a low-speed maglev vehicle with guideway girders was conducted using an iterative approach. Considering the time-delay issue of unsynchronized tuning forces in control process, a clipped-LQR actuator with time-delay compensation is developed to improve control effectiveness of lateral vibration of the running maglev vehicle in cross winds. Numerical simulations demonstrate that although the lateral response of the maglev vehicle moving in cross winds would be amplified significantly, the present clipped-LQR controller exhibits its control performance in suppressing the lateral vibration of the vehicle.

  • In this paper, the characteristics analysis results of the levitation controller of magnetically-levitated vehicle are presented. To get a good closed-loop system, the observer and controller must be designed to meet the control performance and ride quality requirements. So the transfer functions of the observer filter are described and analysed by using the relative and absolute signal concepts.

  • In general, the parallel-connected linear induction motors(LIM) are fed by one VVVF inverter in the magnetically levitated vehicle(MAGLEV) or linear motor subway drives. The air gap length of the parallel-connected linear induction motors operating at a grade or curved sections can be different each other. The air gap difference of the two motors attached to the same module causes unequal phase currents, asymmetic thrust and attraction force generation. In this paper, parellel-connected linear induction motors are operated by one IGBT inverter under the different air gap condition so that the phase current characteristics are examined experimentally.

  • In recent years, Levitated transportation systems have been studied in many countries, Most vehicles used for these systems are driven by linear motors and are levitated magnetically. The magnetic train HDMAG-01 is a proto-type vehicle for low-speed in the range of 100cm/S. This paper presents an outline of the drawing, the testing and its results, describes theoretical models used and compares between computer simulation and test result.

  • One maglev vehicle is composed of 6 r 8 modules. Each module is composed of 4 staggered magnets attached to an aluminum bogie. In the view point of levitation control except propulsion by LIM, 5 is the maximum degrees of freedo to be controlled. But rolling control of the vehicle depends on the bogie structure. We describe just anti-roll type out of bogie structures and 4 degrees of freedom control is sufficient for levitation quality improvement. Multivariable pole-placement concept and the decentralized control concept are used for controller design. Computer simulation and control experiment are performed on a specially designed test module.

  • Interest in advanced vehicles results in correspondingly increased interest in modeling and simulation of the dynamic behavior of Maglev-type vehicle systems. DADS is a program especially suited for the analysis of multibody mechanical systems. This paper demonstrates the application of DADS to the dynamic modeling and simulation of such advanced vehicles. A brief description is made of the modeling requirements of magnetically levitated systems, along with a summary of some of the related capabilities of DADS. As a case study, an analysis of a vehicle based on the UTM01 system is presented. This paper shows that the presented modeling technique is applicable to the dynamic characteristics evaluation and control law design of Maglev- type vehicles.
