The suspension air-gap of Maglev train needs controller for it is inherently unstable and highly nonlinear. To maintain a high quality ride, comfort safety the passengers must air-gap. During operation only in millimeters. This easily causes instability under excitation nonlinear load track tiny deformation. Additionally, with low stiffness will experience larger bending displacement result vib...

In this work, we study the problem of supervisory control networked discrete event systems. We consider lossy communication channels with bounded network delays, for both channel and observation channel. By a model transformation, transform supervisor synthesis into classical (non-networked) (for non-deterministic plants), such that existing tools can be used synthesizing supervisors. particula...

The superconducting magnetically levitated transport (Maglev) system is conceptualized as a next-generation high-speed transportation system. For practical use, it is important to achieve adequate ride comfort particularly in high-speed running. Maglev vehicles are composed of lightweight car bodies and relatively heavy bogies which are mounted with devices such as superconducting magnets (SCMs...

This paper discuses sensor steering mechanism (SSM) for a laterally guided vehicle with a rear wheel steering mechanism. The authors have demonstrated the geometry of SSMs for front wheel steering type and reverse phase four-wheel steering type vehicles. SSMs allow stable lateral guiding performance for automated vehicles following a path with straight and curved portions created by a guideway....
