Abstract
The Marine-Express (ME) which is an amphibious superconducting Maglev train can run both on land and under the water. A unique method for le vitation and propulsion for the ME which can be applied independently of train speeds has been proposed. The method is based on a new combin ed levitation-and-propulsion due to lift and thrust forces of linear s ynchronous motor (LSM) and can be carried out by the decoupled-control method proposed here. ME02 is the second experimental model of a uniq ue LSM car designed to travel underwater based on the new theory. ME02 is a simulator for the ME running on land and underwater The decouple d-control method is verified from dynamics simulations in ME02. (C) 19 98 IMACS/Elsevier Science B.V.
