Abstract
This research paper is going to focus on the magnetic levitation's technological use which us a means in providing capability launch to the future vehicles of space bound. Here we aimed to show about how the magnetic levitation and it's propulsion could be socially and economically justifiable means in launching passengers and cargo for the sake of deep spaced exploration, space tourism and reconnaissance.
Based on the technology's validity, we looked at the political and economic viability in magnetic levitation's establishment and it's propulsion launching system and also compare with the present launch systems.
Maglev (Magnetic Levitation) is an complete advanced latest mode of transportation that is going to join the wheel, the ship and the airplane as a primary stay in moving the good and people across the world. Maglev attains unique advantages through these earlier transportation modes and is going to radically transform the economy of the world and society into this 21st century. Maglev helps in allowing millions of beings for transportation into space and will be able to move large amounts of water across long distances technically for elimination of droughts. The following research study deals about the transport design of Maglev's technologies for man use that has been characterized by handling differently from physical appearance of magnetic forces and materials they are used in. Magnetic levitation technology tend to imply an interaction that is dissimilar from the way the transport systems are operated usually.
Introduction:
The idea about using the force if electromagnetic energy to support a rotating or moving mass has been through around over a century. Researchers initially recommended to magnetic levitating trains only to provide transportation of high-speed ground using alternative current loops that are attached to a vehicle that's undercarriage above conduction metal sheets on to the ground. However, due to the technology's limitation at that time, no results were achieved.
In the year 1934, Hermen Kemoer sensed a patent to his idea about using magnetic levitation and it's propulsion for running transportation systems of high-speed ground. His invention gave a brief description on a monorail vehicle that contains no attached wheels to it which is nothing but a concept if technical floating based on the electromagnetic force if attraction principle. Kemper's such initial proposal provided in helping an extended research on the fuel in using the technology of magnetic levitation. Whilst such initial attempts were completely based on getting arrangements of permanent magnets which would help in levitating or suspending an object that is made of ferrous material.
Today, Maglev is referred to be as an umbrella term, that is used to define a system that an object is either suspended or levitated, propelled and guided along a tract that is purposely built using electromagnetic forces of repulsion or attraction. A system that employs the technology of Maglev helps in allowing us to move large volumes of cargo and passengers between the locations at lower costs and high speeds, when conventional systems are compared. As the systems that use Maglev technology, they cannot be integrated easily with conventional systems and also require latest infrastructure for development, that would be classed as an alternative and new mode of transportation.
Use of Magnetic Levitation
Even though the idea of using the technology of Magnetic Levitation systems for commercial transportation has there for over a century, it wasn't till the late 70s where a full scale transport passenger system was deployed and developed. The use of Magnetic Levitation today is majorly targeted towards three distinct systems, commercial cargo transportation, an urban transport system where it provides city travel at low speed and transport system of high speed intercity that would compete with airlines with long distances effectively. The implementation of Maglev technology systems in such present fast paced society appeals to masses, researchers and developers for various reasons.
Over several years, there have been numerous prototype designs that have been developed for Maglev systems of transportation. When most of the Maglev systems that are designed, primarily focused around transportation systems of ground, the systems if Maglev have been considering providing a catapult launch to aircraft through conventional airports and to those naval carriers o board.
3. Advantages of Magnetic Levitation and its application through the space launch:
There are numerous advantages when magnetic levitation is considered as a candidate if potential propulsion for launch systems of horizontal space.
• In Maglev technology, there is no contact physically, between the track and the vehicle, where the vehicle doesn't face any friction of surface when it gains speed.
• The system helps I'm enabling high acceleration and is weather independent in short time frames at low operational cost, when it's compared to present systems.
• A system that is based on Maglev attains low costs in maintenance and unlike the systems of current propulsion that depend on carrying chemical propellant on-board, Maglev completely depends on power of external sources.
• The amount of power where one can supply to a system of Maglev is limited only by power generation, dissipation and storage technologies.
• Based on the system's location, the powers generating systems that are used could be adapted by the local environment.
• Rather than to use generation units of fired conventional coal, they consider using wind, nuclear, solar and tidal units if power generation or a successful combined models of selected generation.
4. Global Risks:
The following are the global risks in terms of Impact and Likelihood:
• Underemployment and Unemployment.
• Fiscal crises.
• Shock of Energy price.
• Water crises.
• Mass destruction weapons.
• Conflict if Interstate.
• Failure in adaption of climate-change.
• Ecosystem collapse and Biodiversity.
• National governance failure.
• Infectious diseases spread.
• Natural catastrophes.
• Extreme weather conditions.
5. Common Errors when Maglev and HSR (High Speed Rail) systems are compared:
• Travel times and Maximum Speeds.
• Intermodal Network and Compatibility aspects.
• Energy consumption, Investment costs and Operational costs.
• Passenger attraction and system Image.
• Comfort of Riding.
Impacts on Surroundings:
Through Maglev (magnetic levitation) technology, we found the indications that there will be no physical contact through the guide-way, which has lower vibration and noise along the line that attains high rail speed. The lines of rail holds an advantage in greater ability in utilizing grade tracks at urbanized areas. In areas of high-density, both modes, HSR and Maglev should use tunnels.
7. Future innovation:
The innovation of technology is essential for the well-being of future. The ability of any nation's growth to sustain its economic growth, improve human health and increase the standard of living, the environment depends, in several ways on its commercializing and developing success of processes, products and services. The capabilities of competitors that are growing rapidly, in Asia, Europe and elsewhere across the world in a vast increase in challenging the ability of firms in the U.S. to convert the science and technology of the nation into a competitive advantage. However, up to date, the arguments have been hampered to an incomplete understanding about the ways where the firms are marketed and developed by the new products, services and processes and those of the barriers that overcome in the process.
For developing new processes and products, organizations should create sources linkages of new providers and knowledge of components for their designed products. Suck linkages serve many purposes for the innovating organization, allowing it to:
1. Spread the risks and costs associated with the innovation across a large number of organizations.
2. Should gain access to capabilities of technology and new research results for innovation results.
3. Should acquire the key components of a new process or product.
4. Should gain accessing ability to complementary assets of manufacturing, distribution and marketing.
Acquiring these above resources means nothing but linking along with other developers holding similar products, researches and supplies of critical components.
8. Conclusion:
Successful commercialization and innovation of Maglev system of technologies for future developments and growth in advanced transport systems depends on a strong base of science and technology. Commercialization is nothing but a business decision made based on reasonable judgments on future returns from development and product design investments, marketing, manufacturing and distributing. Hence, the size of these returns and the incentives for organizations to innovate latest technologies, depends on various facts beyond the individual firms' boundaries.
The availability of the size, nature and capital of markets, and the existing complementary assets influence the organization's ability to commercialize upcoming new technologies. Organizations have less control often over such factors, or less incentive in adapting their needs. The effort that is required is more extensive and the benefits are more often diffuse for any organization to capture. Attempts in improving capabilities of developing countries in magnetic levitation of commercial engineering should recognize the importance of the need and such factors of interaction among universities, industries and government in addressing them.
By design, many attempts have been avoided by us to organize the emerging technologies for the trends of technological things. Rather, analysis and perspectives are getting focused on the research question kinds from diverging backgrounds of epistemological pose and address regarding magnetic levitation. The present matrix attempts in overlaying a Maglev if research framework to understand the basic beliefs under lied in it. We developed by the distinctions estimated by researchers on whether the problems of real-world are fundamentally getting blocked by the advanced magnetic levitation systems of transportation in terms of building community, contextual and social values. The conclusion on the comparison of HSR and Maglev is that the advantages we found in Maglev over HSR (high speed rail) are quite few and also are very small.
