Shanghai Maglev Development Transportation Company uses MapleSim in their Modeling Projects
In 2004, Shanghai introduced the world’s only commercially operating magnetically levitated (Maglev) train service. Maglev technology is growing in popularity because it emits fewer harmful pollutants and is more efficient at higher speeds than conventional forms of mass transport.
Engineers at the Shanghai Maglev Transportation Development Company Ltd (SMTD) recently chose MapleSim, Maplesoft’s multi-domain modeling and simulation software, as a core part of a new commercially funded controls research laboratory. SMTD is using MapleSim to investigate the physics and control of the increasingly popular Maglev technology.
“With MapleSim’s analytical tools for signal processing and controller development, and its multibody and custom component functionality, there are a number of benefits that MapleSim can bring to our research. As a result, we chose to integrate MapleSim into our toolchain,” says Mr. Bo, Maglev Control System engineer, SMTD.
