but also includes the percentage of lane-miles, by state, that are in urban areas. Here, California distinguishes itself as one of the most urbanized states, having 59% of its lane-miles within urban areas. The national average, by contrast, is almost half that; only 31% of the nation...
This summer, the federal government laid out aframework for regulating the hyperloop, a move that helps further ground next steps for evolving current transportation systems across the country. Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Group that acquiredHyperloop Onein 2017, noted that, "The...
In one instance, BamBrogan smashed a beer bottle when angered, according to the countersuit; BamBrogan acknowledged smashing the bottle outside. SEE ALSO: Move over, Pokemon: China investors eyeing next VR apps By late spring, BamBrogan believed the time had come to hold a frank discussion ...
The Halbach Array is optimal for linear motors as only one side of the stator is used for levitation and linear motion. The prototype was built in a way that the permanent magnets are placed near the top and underside of the primary element (rotor) using a ‘C”-shaped frame. The ...
Because the unconventional, ad hoc civil infrastructure required for Hyperloop is still under a conceptual design phase, one of the most important steps to undertake at this stage is to develop analytical models and tools to simulate the mechanical behaviour, so that any potential issue can be ...
One co-founder repeated this focus on a movement in much of their communication externally and with us: “Our company has made clear from the beginning that we believe the hyperloop itself is a movement and we are participants within that movement.” ...
The future of oil economy, which in large depends on conventionally fuelled vehicle fleets is not only unsustainable but also very limited. In contrast, the electrification of the transportation sector appears to be one of the feasible solutions to challenges such as global climate change, energy ...
When adding one container for the first time, payload (associated with capacity) grows by roughly 30 t. This is a 100 % growth, from 30 to 60 t. When adding one container again, payload grows by roughly 30 t with respect to the initial 60. This is a 50 % increase. The next time...
Theoretically, it is possible to switch horizontally with the same system and prevent the space requirement of the cabin by lowering only one side of the levitation system to EDS while keeping the other side of the EMS active. However, the transition to the secondary levitation system would ...
