In that video, we spoke about many cool things such as superconductivity and electromagnetism, how are they related to Maglev trains, but also the principle of a linear motor thanks to which Maglevs ...

Maglev bullet trains promise a future where steel wheels and clattering rails give way to smooth, floating speed. Yet the reality on today’s tracks is more nuanced, with some systems gliding entirely ...

Maglev trains float above their tracks, eliminating wheel–rail contact and allowing speeds far beyond conventional rail. However, this technological advantage comes with an invisible challenge: ...

The transportation landscape is experiencing a remarkable shift with the emergence of maglev technology. These magnetic levitation trains hover above their tracks using powerful magnets, eliminating ...

In February of this year, we reported on the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation, and its phase one testing of a low-vacuum-tube hyperloop-style maglev ultra-high-speed (UHS) train. In ...

As the United States struggles to keep its major cities connected by even the most barebones rail systems, China is screaming into the future with the development of a levitating bullet train. Called ...

Since it first opened in 1964, Japan's high-speed rail system has been one of the country's most celebrated achievements. These trains, called Shinkansen, are known to English speakers as bullet ...

Something to look forward to: The risk of generating dangerous shockwaves when exiting tunnels has long challenged high-speed rail systems. As maglev trains reach higher speeds, the problem becomes ...

The construction of what is intended to be the world’s fastest train, the Chuo Shinkansen Maglev, which is intended to link Tokyo to Nagoya, with a potential future extension to Osaka, is currently ...
