What Is Hovertrain A hovertrain is a kind of high-speed train that substitutes traditional steel wheels with hovercraft lift pads. Additionally, the standard railway bed is replaced with a paved road-like surface that is known as the track or guideway. The purpose of the idea is to reduce the complexity of the infrastructure required to install new lines while simultaneously eliminating rolling resistance and enabling very high performance. The word "hovertrain" is more of a general phrase, and the specific vehicles are often called to by the project titles under which they were created. In the United Kingdom, these vehicles are referred to as tracked hovercraft, whereas in the United States, they are known as tracked air-cushion vehicles. In France, Jean Bertin (1917-1975) was the first person to design a hovertrain. In France, these trains were marketed as the Aérotrain until the French government decided to terminate the project.

Magnetic Levitation written by Hyung-Suk Han and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-01-02 with Technology & Engineering categories.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of magnetic levitation (Maglev) technologies, from fundamental principles through to the state-of-the-art, and describes applications both realised and under development. It includes a history of Maglev science and technology showing the various milestones in its advancement. The core concepts, operating principles and main challenges of Maglev applications attempted across various fields are introduced and discussed. The principle difficulties encountered when applying Maglev technology to different systems, namely air gap control and stabilization, are addressed in detail. The book describes how major advancements in linear motor and magnet technologies have enabled the development of the linear-motor-powered Maglev train, which has a high speed advantage over conventional wheeled trains and has the potential to reach speed levels achieved by aircraft. However, many expect that Maglev technology to be a green technology that is applied not only in rail transportation, but also in diverse other fields; to ensure clean transfer in LCD manufacturing, in ropeless high speed elevators, small capacity rail transportation, space vehicle launchers, missile testers, energy storage, and so on. These potential applications and their unique challenges and proposed technological solutions are introduced and discussed in depth. The book will provide readers from academia, research institutes and industry with insights on where and how to apply Maglev technology, and will serve as a guide to the realization of their Maglev applications.
