Filed:

Feb 3, 2022

Appl. No.:

17/591605

Inventors:

- Los Angeles CA, US
Dapeng Zhang - Covina CA, US

Assignee:

Hyperloop Technologies, Inc. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

G06Q 10/06
G06Q 30/02
G06Q 50/16
G01C 21/34

Abstract:

A solution is disclosed for traffic demand management of a transportation network. The transportation network may comprise hyperloop modes of transportation as well as non-hyperloop modes of transportation. The solution is configured to generate a socio-economic model, a land use model, an accessibility model as well as a plurality of trip models. The solution further distributes trip models among a plurality of passengers and/or cargo in order to manage traffic within the transportation network. Non-hyperloop modalities may be further associated with the trip models in order to support “last mile” service between a hyperloop portal and an origin and/or destination.

Inventors:

- Los Angeles CA, US
Dapeng Zhang - Covina CA, US

Assignee:

Hyperloop Technologies, Inc. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

G08G 1/01

Abstract:

A solution is disclosed comprising a system and method for deploying a transportation network having a hyperloop network. The solution may be configured to perform processing on models related to existing land use, portal infrastructure, hyperstructure, and route usage in order to generate a deployment cost model. The deployment cost model may have a capital expenditure component and an operating costs component. The solution may generate analytics based on the processed and generated models for presentation via a user interface that is accessible by a human operator. Further, the human operator may interact with the user interface to modify the models and view resulting analytics.

Appl. No.:

17/495039

Inventors:

- Los Angeles CA, US
Dapeng Zhang - Covina CA, US

Assignee:

Hyperloop Technologies, Inc. - Los Angeles CA

International Classification:

B65G 63/00
B65G 54/02
B65G 67/60
B61B 13/08

Abstract:

The disclosed solution provides for an inland port that is configured to load and unload cargo using autonomous systems (including autonomous tractors). The inland port may be serviced by a hyperloop network (of hyperloop routes) between the seaport and the inland port. The disclosed solution may rely on autonomous hyperloop vehicles in the hyperloop network to transport the cargo containers between the seaport and the inland port. At both the seaport and the inland port, autonomous tractors may, in some implementations, be utilized to load and unload the cargo that will be carried by the hyperloop vehicle and/or the truck.

International Classification:

G06F 30/20
G06F 30/12
G06F 30/13

Abstract:

A system for design, modeling, simulation, and analysis of transportation systems is described herein. The system may obtain a set of configuration data for a set of transportation systems. The system may generate a set of models for the set of transportation systems based on the set of configuration data. The system may simulate operations of the proposed transportation system and the one or more other transportation systems based the set of models. The system may also obtain a set of performance metrics for the set of transportation systems based on the simulation.

Appl. No.:

17/099326

Inventors:

- Los Angeles CA, US
Dapeng Zhang - West Covina CA, US

International Classification:

B61L 27/00
G06N 20/00

Abstract:

Merging transportation pods onto transportation lines. A method includes requesting movement information associated with a set of transportation pods that will pass a junction. The method also includes determining whether to merge from the second transportation line to the first transportation line via the junction at the first time based on the movement information. The method further includes merging from the second transportation line to the first transportation line at the junction at the first time, in response to determining that the first transportation pod should merge from the second transportation line to the first transportation line via the junction at the first time.
