Maglev

cities used them under the streets ( Boston got the idea from London, and London came up with the great concept of having an underground railway which turned into the Underground and the Subway. ) Today Miami uses what most cities use, like cabs, maglev trains, buses, aircraft, (helicopters ) skateboards, cars, segways, and hoverboards. The

is a transportation alternative called, the Maglev. This train, if you will, uses magnetic levitation to transport people and things. Solar panels will create the energy to move this Maglev. Thus creating, much less pollution and a much safer way to travel and get around. Maglevs run on tracks, which means there is a path for the Maglev to follow. Meaning, it is very unlikely that the Maglev will crash or experience an emergency. In conclusion, the Maglev will change the system of transportation

Modern society has become almost entirely dependent on the use of electricity. It is impossible to think of anything that you do or touch that does not involve electricity in any way, were not produced by electricity, and are not related to your body’s internal uses of electricity. All of our modern conveniences are powered by electricity, the computers we use every day, our cell phone, our kitchen appliances, lighting, and our heat and air conditioning are all completely reliant on the discovery

mother comes down and tells me to walk down and water the sheep and a neighbors pasture. I sigh, pause, and get up and start to walk down the road. As I’m walking my mind begins to wonder like it always do. In the movie there is a superhero that uses MagLev (Magnetic Levitation) to move super-fast. I knew it used magnets to

were asked open-ended questions about nanotechnology. In the second grade magnet lesson this was when we were asked open-ended questions about magnetism. In the fourth grade magnet lesson this was when each group had to think of ways to modify their “maglev” train to make it have the highest figure of merit. Each of the lessons reinforced what we have been learning in class; the 5E’s, and that science and math can be taught in a fun, hands-on way that encourages the students to think critically. The

The world is in a state of crisis. Many current national and global issues that are occurring are caused by our methods of transportation and more specifically how they are powered. Gasoline, oil, and coal are just a few examples of some root causes. This can be fixed and luckily it seems that as a collective, we are furthering our understanding and advancements in cleaner energy and thereby providing a safer, healthier environment. There are many current companies that are striving for a better

Transportation is the process of which people get from one location to another; however, it comes at a cost. The price we all pay when we take a method of transportation comes in two forms. The first form is time and the second is a monetary value. In recent days it seems like the cost that correlates to transportation is rising. As raw materials like oil and coal become scares throughout the world the price for those materials increase as the demand increases. With the cost of raw materials increasing

The most obvious way Levitation can be performed is by raising something up, but there are many other ways that Levitation can also be performed like Magnetic Levitation can be used for melting different things or for maglev train. A Maglev train is a public transport technology that uses electric levitation to move vehicles with making contact with the ground or an electrical pickup. Although Magicians are the most well known people to perform levitation the are not the only

Abstract This report applies proactive risk management to the construction of the Colorado I-70 Monorail project, a 155-mile transportation system from Denver, CO to Vail, CO. Risk events and impacts for the $7.5 billion project are identified based on the five-year construction schedule. Referencing “Proactive Risk Management” by P. G. Smith and G. M. Merritt, the standard risk model and the five-step risk management process are described and utilized. This report identifies and analyzes risks
