Animated Simulation of regulating intervals between superspeed vehicles in Hyperloop tubeway
Abstract
In the HyperTube (or Hyperloop) maintaining a safe distance between vehicles is crucial because it travels at ultra-high speeds of around 1,000 km/h. The simulation system, we have implemented, analyzes the impact of a key parameter causing deviations from the planned acceleration or deceleration on maintaining safe inter-vehicle distances. It simulates and animates how the interval changes between vehicles in real-time, allowing for simultaneous monitoring of multiple vehicles. This system provides real-time observation of vehicle statuses and helps identify points to be improved in the driving control of the physical capsule vehicle model under development, by showing speed changes and inter-vehicle distances.
