The Hyperloop May Disrupt More Than Just Travel
Переглядів 4,452,802
3 роки томуElon Musk coined the term Hyperloop back in 2013 when he released his vision for a fifth mode of transport. Since then, engineers around the world have been working to make his idea a reality sooner than you might think. Virgin Hyperloop has successfully tested the technology with human passengers and in Europe, Hardt Hyperloop is working on the technology and international coalition building needed to create entire Hyperloop networks. On this episode of Accelerate, we’ll look at how one Hyperloop track could take passengers from San Francisco to Los Angeles in a half hour, and how Hyperloop networks could redefine the economies of entire continents.

The thing that has stood in the way of evacuated very high speed trains has always been tunneling technology. You don't need tunneling if the land is very flat, but that does not describe many places. To really get long straight runs, you need tunnels. When we get rapid tunneling technology, near jogging speeds, these things can be everywhere. The reality is, though, that automated eVTOL is going to reduce the need for this, except for longer distances.

I love how incredibly out of touch this is. We’ve all been aware for years that the hyperloop is a massive scam and insanely redundant. It’s pseudo science and Bloomberg just fell for it 😂😂
@matteloht Рік тому
the science is actually plausible. But the economics is the problem. They even where (Transrapid) or still are (SCMaglev) for "regular" magnetic levitation systems. And now within a tube that has to maintain a vacuum it's just insanely more costly to build the infrastructure for it. It has to pay it's costs of someday, but flying is just to cheap still as a direct competitor. Even if it would be faster. The Concorde had to go as well mostly due to cost factors...
@immanuellasker4273 Рік тому
my concern is that I don't see real economical advantages if compaired with trains, which infrastructure is already on, longly tested and well distributed. On the other hand this could substitute airplanes (maybe) but I heard they are also working on green planes which would be more economical to build and operate. All in all it seems cool but I'm not so sure if the benefit of going from Liverpool to Manchester in 6 minutes overcomes the cons. It would be interesting to know how much energy this would save and how long it takes to breakeven.
@rubencid2575 2 роки тому
Does anyone notice that the total capacity of the hyperloop is a fraction of the train? the speed of it can beneficial but you can literally break a whole section of the line with a single bullet and everything blows up by a decompression. And it inherent cost of construction and maintenance
@garethbaus5471 2 роки тому
I doubt that any engineer would be ok with constructing any vehicle from a material that is brittle enough to be destroyed in that way by a bullet. Much like a bullet hitting a plane the damage would consist of a single hole that could be plugged with a finger, something that should be repaired when the vehicle stops but pretty far from the complete destruction of a section.

What about weather and extreme weather conditions, natural disasters including seismic activity. Not planning for these can cause the whole thing to come crashing down. Although the idea of having a hyperloop from say an airport to a train station or from towns to train stations or airports would speed up travel and would get rid of almost 80% of rental vehicles and other vehicles on the road. Reducing co2 emissions and lowering gasoline usage which would make it greener so long as the hyperloop itself isn't causing more issues than its solving definitely needs to be renewable energy.

As a former train designer, the technology is very do-able. As stated by Alan James, the effects will be transformational... if phased in correctly. The economies of scale plus operational running cost efficiencies will rapidly bring down costs across the board to a point where time saved incl. the benefits & all cost per Km Minute travelled, will rival existing modes of transport. Super commercial hubs (like the one shown in the North of England) will be replicated all over the world where these hubs, once connected to other hubs, will themselves create their own dynamic.

I like how they gloss over the biggest hurdle. Actually making a vacuum in that large of a system with seals that last for even a decade in the tubes.

@plusmanikantanr 2 роки тому
If everything is magnetic I think all they have to do is have some kind of magnetic bearings and switches?That close-open-open-close sort of sequence of vacuum airlocks ... it has to happen in mere milliseconds or microseconds depending on the speed of the pods, and they need to keep independent vacuum pumps running constantly in each section, priming the vacuum, and depending on the traffic you more or less regulate the intensity of the vacuum and the speed of transfer .... each transfer causes air leakage and the vacuum gets slowly lost until you have to shutdown the system to restore the vacuum. If there was a natural way something like how a ram water pump works, to build up the vacuum into a chamber, you could potentially use the hyperloop system to pump water and form a vacuum and effectively become a sort of electricity,internet/data,water, air, sewage, people transportation system that could solve excessive urban sprawl. IF, not when. If HighSpeedRail can be built, it would make hyperloop a deadend. When Elon does Starship hopping from Port to Port , you WONT need hyperloop or planes.

It would be almost a lot like a subway, people trying to pack into whatever is available, and even then there would be people that would be left behind because there wouldn't be enough room, not enough seats to go around. In all truth, in those matters, I would find a personal car a lot quicker.

They didn’t even explain how it was safe in the case of a power outage or seatbelts or if you can stand up. All I got from this is that this would make a great roller coaster

lets not forget it will operate in a vacuum explosive decompression is no joke

@@raven123121 im guessing theyll take steps to make the tube sterile so theres no puncture risk, but the power outage thing is different. realistically, to be safe all you need are manual and automatic pressure relief valves and aux power, which will be in high supply if its powered on renewables due to their inconsistency. the guys in the vid were obviously wearing seatbelts and the tech has yet to show the best way to do this. some buses require seatbelts and some dont, possibly hyperloop will be the same depending on safety.

What would a power outage do to it? Isn't Virgin's one on one type of maglev off the pod. I'd guess the ride should be pretty consistent, so no need for seatbelts. In any case it should be fast enough that no one would care.

@@jonathanodude6660 Everyone seems to forget that the pods can decompress. Your blood would instantly boil in one of these things if the pod lost pressure, and there'd be no way for anyone to rescue you.

Another big problem would be the fact that each pod would need a air system and air scrubbers to keep the air in the pod breathable on the trip. You would have to monitor and and swap out the air filters on a consent basis.
