Electromagnetic levitation is commonly associated with transport applications, principally -MagLev- trains. However the technology has many potential applications across engineering, particularly where there is a requirement to improve efficiency of electrical products and devices, propelled by the desire to minimize frictional and bearing losses and ohmic losses in conductors, the major causes of machine inefficiency.

Fundamentals of Electromagnetic Levitation is an introductory text encompassing the enabling electrical technologies associated with magnetic levitation,...
