Abstract: A Halbach permanent magnetic guideway (PMG) is presented for improving the levitation performance of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) magnetic levitation (maglev) vehicle. The studies have shown that an optimality criterion is used for evaluating the levitation performance for the HTS maglev vehicle.
