The result of this advancement is an ultra-smooth ride at unprecedented speeds, and recent tests have shown promising results ...

Let us know in the comments below. If you’re looking to play with this phenomenon in your own projects, it seems you can buy a magnetic levitation device which exhibits similar properties.

Magnetic levitation has not quite revolutionized the world of transit the way some of us might have hoped. It has, however, proven useful to [mrdiytechmagic], who has put the technology to grand ...

The most common type of levitation occurs through magnetic fields. Objects such as superconductors or diamagnetic materials (materials repelled by a magnetic field) can be made to float above ...

A team of researchers at the Quantum Machines Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) in Japan have showed off a small piece of "gravity-free" graphite to levitate almost ...

China’s experimental hyperloop T-Flight maglev train is advancing toward making record-breaking transportation speeds a ...

Cardiac surgeons and heart failure specialists at Michigan Medicine are testing a new left ventricular assist device called ...

The piece — a magnetic-powered levitating sculpture — is the result of a partnership between the city of Tallahassee and Florida State University, home to the National High Magnetic Field ...

and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (MagLab) have unveiled “Maggie,” a magnetically levitating work of art. The sculpture was built by Florida State University Master Craftsman ...

In terms of operation alone, the magnetic levitation train would save costs compared to the rival project, as it can be operated automatically and with low wear. However, the switch from tram to ...

Fridge magnets, compasses and maglev trains which use magnetic levitation. Thermal In most cases this is the vibrations of the particles in the object. In hotter objects, the particles vibrate faster.
