Evacuated tube high temperature superconducting (HTS) maglev vehicle test system

Based on the passive self-stable HTS Maglev conceived in 2000, a 45-m-long high-temperature superconducting Maglev evacuated tube transport (HTS Maglev-ETT) test system was successfully developed. The system mainly consists of three parts: an HTS Maglev-vehicle-guideway coupling system with 1-t load capability at a levitation gap of 10 mm, a 45-m-long racetrack-type evacuated tube with a 2-m-di...

Dynamic performance test rig of full-scale track structures for high-speed railway

 This test rig has two types of loading methods to study dynamic behavior. The first method uses a static bogie to transfer the dynamic force produced by a hydraulic system. The second method uses a hydraulic system to exert force on the rail. There are six types of track structures equipped in this system, including ballast track, twin-block ballastless track, ballastless tracks of CRTS-I, CRT...
