Monorail system have found shared applications in the transportation market in airport transfer and some medium capacity metro system. Monorail Society further clarifies the definition of a monorail such that the beam in a monorail system is narrower than the vehicle. Modern monorails are always partitioned from other traffic and pedestrians. Monorails are both guided and supported via interaction with the same single beam, in contrast to other guided system such as Rubber-tryed metros.
Modern monorails depend on a large solid beam as the vehicles running surface. There are a number of competing designs divided into two broad classes, straddle-beam and suspended monorails. Almost all modern monorails are powered by electric motors fed by dual third rail, contact wires or electrified channels attached to or enclosed in their guidance beams.
Magnetic levitation train system by the German Transrapid were built as straddle-type monorails, as they are highly stable and allow rapid deceleration from great speed. When in full-speed operation maglev trains hover over the track and are thus not in physical contact with it.
Current operating monorails are capable of more effcient switching than in the past. In the case of suspended monorails, switching may be accomplished by moving flanges inside the beamway to shift trains to one line or another.
Many countries in the world used the monorails. for example Amerika, Australia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Korea, and much more......
Jakarta governor will make a monorail to ease traffic congestion in Jakarta, so let's see what's happening in Jakarta after monorail was built.
