ELECTROMAGNETIC LIFT AND DRAG FORCES ON A SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNET PROPELLED ALONG A GUIDEWAY COMPOSED OF METALLIC LOOPS

An exact solution to the problem of a single constant current magnet (or group of magnets) moving uniformly along a guideway of metallic loops has been obtained and programmed for computerized results: single layer, double layer, or ladder tracks can be analyzed. The actual current in the loops as well as the actual lift and drag forces are obtained.
