Thrust control of superconducting DC linear motor for electromagnetic launch

This paper presents a thrust control based on current compensation. The controller is designed based on the relationship between current and back-EMF, and the control scheme is assessed through simulation study. Simulation results demonstrate current compensation control could minimum thrust fluctuant.
