[0002] Leveraging the diamagnetic and flux pinning properties of high-temperature superconducting materials in applied external fields, high-temperature superconducting maglev trains achieve self-stabilizing levitation and guidance, boasting advantages such as simple structure, energy conservation, and environmental friendliness, while also enabling ultra-high-speed operation. The core components of high-temperature superconducting maglev trains include high-temperature superconducting bulk materials and permanent magnet tracks. In large-scale applications, single-seed cylindrical superconducting bulk materials with a diameter of 30 mm and a thickness of 20 mm (from the Beijing Research Institute of Nonferrous Metals) and three-seed rectangular bulk materials with dimensions of 64 mm × 32 mm × 13 mm (from ATZ, Germany) have been put to practical use. From the first manned high-temperature superconducting maglev train, the Century, to the high-temperature superconducting maglev train in Brazil, to the high-temperature superconducting maglev engineering prototype rolled off the production line at Southwest Jiaotong University, larger HTS bulk materials have demonstrated improved levitation and load-bearing performance. However, due to limitations in the mass production technology for large-scale HTS bulk materials, bulk size has become a bottleneck in improving the levitation and load-bearing performance of high-temperature superconducting maglev trains. At present, based on the bipolar Halbach permanent magnet track, the literature (IEEE Trans. Appl.
