The lateral stability of superconducting magnetic levitation systems is critical to safe operation of maglev technologies. The article provides a horizontal stability investigation of suspension of a superconducting system with an object levitating between two magnetic bodies. The system consists of bulk high-temperature superconductors (HTSs) and...

As new advanced vehicles, electromagnetic suspension (EMS)-type maglev trains have received wide attention because of their advantages such as high speed, no mechanical friction, low noise, low cost and energy consumption, strong climbing ability, and green environmental protection. The open-loop instability is one of the key points and difficultie...

This paper presents two sliding mode control (SMC) strategies for a magnetic levitation system. First, a state feedback-based discrete-time sliding mode controller (DSMC) is designed using an improved reaching law to counteract the matched uncertainties with reduced chattering. However, the disturbance rejection ability is compromised to some exten...

Recently, magnetic levitation systems have been applied and studied in various industrial fields. In particular, in-tracktype magnetic levitation conveyor systems are actively studied since they can effectively minimize electromagnetic effects in processes that require a highly clean environment. In this type of system, diverse and multiple sensors...

We previously derived direct-current type negative dielectric susceptibility  , a state which was termed "diaelectric" in previous work. One candidate for a strong diaelectric material was postulated to be a permanent magnet. In this study, we regard magnets as anti-electric materials such that this diaelectric phenomenon may satisfy all condition...

In this research, a novel method to improve the particle size and content of Y2BaCuO5 (Y-211) in YBa2Cu3O7 − x (YBCO) bulks was demonstrated. The single-domain YBCO bulks (20 mm in diameter) have been fabricated employing the RE+011 TSIG technique with different heating rates during the liquid phase infiltration (LPI) stage. The various heating rat...
