  • Abstract
    A three-dimensional integral equation formulation of the electrodynamic interaction of an array of superconductive magnets moving over a pair of conducting guideway strips is reviewed. The induced current distribution in the split-guideway conductors and the lift, drag, and lateral forces are presented, and the effects of vehicle speed, lateral displacement, and gap between the guideway strips on levitation characteristics are discussed
