| Summary: | Magnetic Levitation Systems (MLS), or Maglev for short, utilise magnetic fields to levitate
objects. They find applications in various scientific fields, particularly transportation, materials science,
and biomedical engineering. Due to the diverse applications, different modelling and control approaches
are necessary. The operation of each Maglev system depends on specific physical parameters. These key
variables include the weight of the object being levitated, the current supplied to the system, the internal
resistance and inductance of the electromagnet, and the distance between the object and the electromagnet.
This research aims to understand the working principles of MLS. We will design and simulate a model
based on real MLS hardware using MATLAB & Simulink. Additionally, we will create a functional
Maglev prototype and program its control system using Arduino IDE and an Arduino microcontroller.
MATLAB & Simulink offer a powerful tool for creating behavioral models for MLS. This model will then
be integrated with Arduino programming to control the Maglev prototype. |
