Abstract :
This paper deals with the experiments and simulations of the levitation force between permanent magnet and High Tc Superconductor (HTS), and also the simulations of the dynamic behaviors related to vibration. Levitation force is evaluated numerically on the basis of the magnetic vector potential method and the critical state model. The superconductor is approximated to 2-D axisymmetric model for the simulation
