The study was conducted on the basis of contextual search for relevant documents in open global abstract and citation databases of scientific publications (Scopus, Web of Science), international patent databases (Google Patent, WIPO).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Statistical estimates of the rate and intensity of generating new technical and technological solutions were obtained. These estimates are proposed to be used as a tool for forecasting promising areas of research and development of new types of transport systems.</p>magnetic levitationmaglevpatent searchpublication activitytechnological rhythmsмагнитная левитациямаглевпатентные исследованияпубликационная активностьтехнологические ритмы[Kuznets S.
