ABSTRACT:
A control system for stabilizing a vehicle resiliently levitated above a guideway including at least two sets of at least two aerodynamic control means mounted on the vehicle. The sets of aerodynamic control means are spaced longitudinally along the vehicle and the control means in each set are spaced on the vehicle. Further included are means for sensing the acceleration of the vehicle in at least one mode of oscillation and means, responsive to the means for sensing acceleration, for operating the aerodynamic control means to provide offsetting forces and moments for correcting the sensed acceleration to damp vehicle oscillation.
