| Abstract |
In this paper, dynamic simulation results for modules of a magnetically-levitated(Maglev) vehicle are presented. The mathematical dynamic models for the Maglev vehicle are firstly derived. The Maglev system consists of one vehicle, two half-bogies, one guideway, four secondary suspensions, eight electromagnets and levitation control systems. Also, the dynamic characteristics are analysed by using the derived models. Finally, two simulations such as reference airgap step change of 1mm and rail step change of 1mm, are carried out. The dynamic simulation results are shown to testify the developed dynamic simulation program. From the results, we can see the possibility of the dynamic simulation program to develop a new Maglev vehicle system. |
