I am doing a college-level research paper on electomagnets and their use and and corresponding project testing the durability of certain materials used in electromagnets technology. The title of my project is, "Determining Which Factors of Magnetic Levitation System Will Provide Maximum Durability."

I chose this topic because I have always been interested in magnets and their use and the idea of a making my own miniature maglev train system is really cool.

The problem is that I haven't had any study in magnets and do not have anyone to whom I can turn who has good enough knowledge on this system. If anyone out there has adequate understand of these systems and live in or around the PG County Maryland area, please contact me as soon as possible.

Or if there is no one in the area, I would like to be able to set up an online correspondence where I can pitch my questions and ideas.

I would be forever grateful.
