James Powell and Gordon Danby of Brookhaven received the first patent for a magnetically levitated train design in the late 1960s.
- How Maglev Trains Work | HowStuffWorksIt's impossible to know exactly how maglevs will figure into the future of human transportation. Advances in self-driving cars and air travel may complicate the deployment of maglev lines. If the hyperloop industry manages to generate momentum, it could disrupt all sorts of transportation systems.
- Maglev - WikipediaExample of low-speed urban maglev system, Linimo. Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of rail transport whose rolling stock is levitated by electromagnets rather than rolled on wheels, eliminating rolling resistance.
- Maglev Trains | How it works, Application & Advantages - MagnetismMaglev, an abbreviation for magnetic levitation, is a transportation method that employs magnetic levitation to move vehicles without touching the ground. The underlying technology leverages magnets to provide lift and propulsion, thereby reducing friction and allowing for high-speed travel. Origins and Development.
