Abstract :
This paper presents a method for designing a magnetodynamic suspension system that ensures a strict local minimum of system potential energy along the assigned trajectory of its levitator flight. The magnetic field and forces of the system are calculated in the domain of its variable parameters restricted by the conditions of stable equilibrium. The algorithm of the solution, a sample evaluation of the system, and the calculation of the vehicle natural oscillations under transient external effects are presented
