From pod to plane: a design proposal connecting the Hyperloop system with aviation at Brandenburg Airport, Berlin

There is a growing need for alternatives regarding aviation; the Hyperloop might offer a partial solution. However, there is a gap in knowledge, case studies and design concepts to investigate how the new system could be connected to aviation at airports. Such a space does not exist yet, and is therefore relatively undiscovered territory. <br/>...

Aerodynamic Design and Optimization of a Hyperloop Vehicle

The Hyperloop is a newly proposed transportation method which caters to the rising demand of high-speed transportation, while adhering to stringent emission requirements. This system comprises pods that are propelled through a partially evacuated tube at velocities of 300 m/s. The low-pressure environment paired with high-subsonic Mach numbers...
