Magnetic river
Magnetic river is an electrodynamic magnetic levitation (maglev) system designed by Fredrick Eastham and Eric Laithwaite in 1974. It consists of a thin conductive plate on an AC linear induction motor. Due to the transverse flux and the geometry, this gives it lift, stability and propulsion as well as being relatively[vague] efficient. The name refers to the action that provides stability along the longitudinal axis, which acts similar to the flow of water in a river.
