Abstract
Abstract: In this growing world when cities and towns continue to become more crowded , the modes of transportation that are currently available to us will not be able to handle the demands of these overpopulated areas. This problem can be solved by the concept of electromagnetism. Electromagnets and superconducting magnets have allowed us to create a magnetic levitating train nicknamed “Maglev” which reduces friction between track and train by floating over it instead of directly being in contact. This has a lot of potentials to create trains that require a high initial investment but later on low maintenance and helps in fast transportation thus saving time. The magnetic levitation system used by these trains play an important role in suspending the Maglev train stably and following the track quickly with the adequate gap from the side walls thus highly reducing chances of damage. This paper gives an idea about the tech aspects of maglev projects worldwide such as Germany, Japan, and USA and also discusses about various idea to bring Maglev trains in developing countries like India. Keywords: Maglev, superconducting magnets, magnetic levitation, Transrapid, lateral guidance, linear induction morot, frictionless travel.
