Design and Optimization of Linear Doubly-Fed Induction Machine for Wireless Charging Operation of Novel Vactrain System

With the aim to reduce the CO2 emissions in the transportation sector, there have been significant developments in the recent few years where novel ground transport systems operating at airline speeds using all-electric propulsion have emerged to provide a sustainable alternative to classical methods of <br/>transport such as air travel. These...

The dynamic response of a Hyperloop tube embedded in soft soils

The hyperloop system is a new transportation mode, which consists a magnetic levitating capsule-like hyperloop pod and a vacuum tube. Due to small air hindrance, the hyperloop pod is conceived to have a maximum speed of 333 m/s. If such a hyperloop system is to be built underground in soft soils, the hyperloop speed can easily reach the wave...
