IntroductionA Hyperloop would be "an elevated, reduced-pressure tube that contains pressurized capsules driven within the tube by a number oflinear electric motors.

3

HistoryProposed by ELON MUSKA high-levelalpha designfor the system was published on August 12, 2013.

4

CONVENTIONAL MODES OF TRANSPORTATION:RAIL relatively slow and expensive ROAD relatively slow WATER relatively slow AIR expensive

5

Hyperloop consists of a low pressure tube with capsules that are transported at both low and high speeds throughout the length of the tube.

2.TUBE

The tube is made of steel. Two tubes will be welded together in a side by side configuration to allow the capsules to travel both directions.

3.PROPULSION

Linear accelerators are constructed along the length of the tube at various locations to accelerate the capsules.

AdvantagesInexpensive (road) Fast (air) Environmentally friendly (rail/road via electric cars) Sustainable (uses solar energy)Runs trough the median of existing highway

LimitationsA number of economists and transportation experts have expressed the belief that theUS$6 billionprice tag dramatically understates the cost of designing, developing, constructing and testing an all-new form of transportation.19
