Inertial railway propulsion continuation.

The propulsion systems until this day are related to internal combustion engines or electric motors application, very rare is magnetic levitation propulsion system. Here is some information about inertial propulsion for railway application. Latest technology existing in the world according to propulsion system is based on artificial generated forces mainly related to pressure differences or to jet reaction, a huge part of nowadays technology is based on electric motors and especially on internal combustion engines. Using inertial or gravity forces to propulsion of anything still seems to be a distant future. However some considerations can be achieve to better understanding of such a topics on technology field. Now I allow myself to present some technology which is based on inertial and gravity natural forces application which is visible as below picture.

This is a case of cutaway of the tunel situation in which the train is moving. The entire construction for the train is made from reinforced concrete and steel. The vehicle is supported on construction which is made of steel and it is moving on wheels with roller bearings or on air pressure cushions. The track has a propulsion dips placed continuously on its entire length which is optimized to local external environmental requirements. It is recommended in this case to place the guide-ways in near to horizontal plane as much as is possible to avoid level differences on its way. Main principle of this idea is very simple and it is based on gravity force which is dragging down the train what is caused by each individual dip located on the upper guide-way from the upside. The guide-way must poses the jump. The jump is required because there is no other way to overcome individual level differences without its presence. In this aim there are used jump overcoming electromagnets. The electromagnets are turning on each time the wheel is in nearness of the jump location lifting the entire vehicle slightly and helping the wheel to overcome level differences. In reality the jump should be optimized to proper dimensions depending from the local environmental requirements. The system has projected electricity generators to regenerative braking on the deck. At the bottom is placed steel beam. The role of this beam is to make stronger the pressure on the external support by the wheels thus the vehicle can accelerate faster and it is achieved by spring clump mechanism. Now it is clear that the vehicle need very low electricity energy to its operating.  



The electromagnets used to cross the jumps will be probably slightly decelerating the train and may be also used as a brakes to slow down the vehicle when is the need, there are several ways to omit this problem: first is to project an individual clump system with wheels especially for crossing the jumps or the second way is to completely eliminate the jumps using doubled dips each in the opposite direction but this will to require the use of different propulsion method and different electronic control and than the entire propulsion system should be projected once again with the proper data.

The question is why to create such a weird propulsion systems at all when there are already good standard propulsion methods in current world transportation solutions ? For me is mainly important to check some gravity effects related to this technology, this is why I try to consider this kind of solutions. I hope that someday my idea come true and this technology will enter to realization phase, but currently this is only my individual wish.
