Mingda Zhai Book order (chronological)

This book focuses on the modeling, control, diagnosis, and fault-tolerant design of the suspension and guidance systems of high-speed maglev trains using electromagnetic suspension technology. This technology is prevalent in various engineering applications, such as maglev trains, magnetic bearings, and vibration isolators. Drawing on research and innovations from the maglev team at the National University of Defense Technology, the book summarizes significant technical achievements in levitation and guidance control technology for high-speed maglev trains. It provides a detailed analysis of the current research status and challenges in suspension control technology, including modeling and controller design. The performance indices and evaluation methods for the levitation and guidance systems under different conditions are discussed. A novel suspension scheme utilizing permanent magnet electromagnetic hybrid suspension is proposed, along with vehicle test results aimed at enhancing energy efficiency and reducing heating in electromagnetic suspension systems. Additionally, the book explores fault diagnosis and tolerant control methods to enhance safety and reliability. The findings and applications of suspension control technology are thoroughly presented, making this work valuable for researchers, engineers, and graduate students in rail transit, train control, and maglev technology.
