Advances in rocket acceleration to supersonic speeds before ignition part of plan to create hub of private rocket manufacture ...

This energy loss has discouraged the use of magnetic levitation to develop advanced sensors. OIST scientists set out to engineer a platform that can float and oscillate without losing energy ...

A superconducting magnetic levitation train, also known as SCMaglev or Maglev for short, can travel at speeds up to 300 mph or faster. Project developers for a proposed Maglev train in the ...

The development of maglev cars could surpass other advanced automotive technologies currently being pursued by leading automakers. For example, Lamborghini’s dual-fuel engine, Toyota’s zero ...

We don’t know about that. What’s wrong with using LEGO as a research platform for a Maglev? This team has been doing so for quite some time and with great results. A Maglev is a vehicle based ...

China is developing a novel electromagnetic rocket launch system, aiming to disrupt US dominance in space exploration by 2028 ...

Japan's maglev train just set a world record speed of 375 mph (over 600 kph) during a manned test run on April 21. Central Japan Railway plans to launch the service of the magnetically levitated ...

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 ...

In this three week storyline unit, 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 ...

Thanks to this phenomenon we’re happy to report that yet another 3D printable magnetic levitation switch has come to light. Developed by [famichu], this take on the concept is markedly different ...

It's simple: The Shanghai Maglev is one of the fastest passenger trains in the world. Traveling at about 270 miles per hour, this train is the adult equivalent of the theme park ride, especially ...

A blink and you will miss it test ride on the maglev Chuo Shinkansen Line offers some idea of the potential of traveling at 500 kph. Central Japan Railway Co. (JR Tokai) provided a trial run for ...
