Combined-levitation-and-propulsion single-sided linear induction motor (SLIM) vehicle can be levitated without any additional levitation system. When the vehicle runs, the attractive-normal force varies depending on the phase of primary current because of the short primary end effect. The ripple of the attractive-normal force causes the vertical vibration of the vehicle. In this paper, instantaneous attractive-normal force is analyzed by using space harmonic analysis method. And based on the analysis, vertical vibration control is proposed. The validity of the proposed control method is verified by numerical simulation.
