What does EDS stand for when discussing maglev train?
It stands for ElectroDynamic Suspension.
Why is the maglev train called the maglev train?
maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
What is electromagnet train?
You must mean a Maglev train. A Maglev train operates on maglev (magnetic levitation). It uses electromagnets (and possibly superconductors) that repel each other to lift the train above the ground to reduce as much friction as possible.
Abbreviation for magnetic levitation?
"Maglev" is.
What are the different types of maglev trains?
The three types of maglev trains are EDS (electrodynamic suspension), EMS (electromagnetic suspension) and stabilized permanent magnet suspension (SPM). * For EMS, same pole electromagnets in the train repel it away from a magnetically conductive track. * The EDS uses electromagnets on both the track and the train, to push the train away from the track. * SPM uses opposite arrays of permanent magnets to magnetically levitate the train above the track. http://trains.suite101.com/article.cfm/maglev_trains
What does the eds extension on webmail mean?
EDS is a domain name extension owned by the Hewlett-Packard Company which is used for their webmail. EDS is an abbreviation for Electronic Data Systems.

How do you people get on maglev trains?
They get on from an opening passage way that comes out of the maglev train
What countries do maglev trains come from?
Germany and Japan are both developing maglev train technology, and are both currently testing prototypes. Japan Railway Company has designed their train to go at 311mph and carry 16 carriages (1,000 commuters). Although Germany and Japan's trains are similar, they have very distinctive differences. The German train uses electromagnetic suspension (EMS) system, and the Japanese trains use an electrodynamics suspension (EDS) system. EMS uses standard electromagnets, in which the coils only conduct electricity when a power supply is present. The EDS chills the coils at frigid temperatures, saving energy. The system used to cool these coils can be expensive though.China is also involved with the construction of maglev trains. China is planning to build a vacuum-tube maglev train which is predicted to go 1,000 km/h. Putting the maglev train inside a vacuum tube will enable greater velocity due to decreased friction.Although these trains will enable faster travel, they will not be available for public use until 2045.Maglev trains are a type of high-speed train that runs on magnets supported by a magnetic field generated around the track. China, Japan, France, Germany, and Spain have maglevs.Not counting models and test projects; one. In Shanghai, China.
How does magnetism keep the cars suspended on a maglev train?
Magnetism elevates the maglev train because like forces repel. Maglev trains are not suspended, but are elevated.
Can maglev train built underground?
Yes, maglev trains can be built underground. In fact, the majority of the Chuo Shinkansen maglev line being built in Japan will be underground.
Who invented MAGLEV?
Earnshaw from Cambridge University , he is the first man who posted the principle of maglev. But Hermann Kemper, a German engineer, is the first man who is proposed as the farther of maglev.
