Type: Hyperloop Route Research & Tube Design Time: 2014.10-2014.12 __ 3 Person Group Work Duty: Current transportation research, route strategy proposal, rendering, tube design Director: Craig Hodgetts __ Instructor: Marta Anna Nowak, David Ross

Mapping multiple criteria of the current transportation, evaluating these criteria and overlapping them is the main method to decide a potential route for Hyperloop. Aiming at the existing problems of the city and characteristics of Hyperloop, using the problem-solution model, we try to propose national and regional strategies of route building, taking social, economical and political conditions into consideration.

Taking Los Angeles to Las Vegas as an example, in between the two cities is mostly thirsty and deserted land with few bald hills. And because of the typical feature of Hyperloop, we propose a vacuum tube supported by modular pylons to accommodate different topography. By implementing extra function into this structure, the tube has more possibilities to highly achieve its value.

HYPERLOOP TERMINUS SPIRAL

Type: Hyperloop Station Prototype Research & Design Time: 2015.1-2015.3 __ 5 Person Group Work Duty: Drawings including station plans, sections, analysis, capsule design and urban design. Director: Craig Hodgetts __ Instructor: Marta Anna Nowak, David Ross

Hyperloop is a unique transportation technology based on centuries-old pneumatic tube principles, promising to provide ultra clean, safe, affordable intra-urban travel at high speed. Our Hyperloop station design involves considering the design of the tube, capsule and cartridge. Based on our research, we generate a new spiral mechanism that would be able to dispatch capsules and cartridges in and out fluidly. The modular platforms can provide easy access for drop-off and pickup. We also provide a first-class capsule for the VIP guest. Thus the seating would be more private, spacious, comfortable with a few entertainment options.

As to solve the non-stop sequence, we proposed the concept of “Spiral’, which is a revolving elevator that can carry the capsule or cartridge, and meet the demands of high frequency of Hyperloop system. There is no passenger inside the cartridge or capsule while they are turning around in the spiral. TRAFFIC SYSTEM

URBAN CIRCULATION Non-stop High Frequency

Since we use “Spiral” as mechanical circulation support for the whole station, as for the urban system, we divide arrival and departure into two separate direction. Besides, there is an viaduct on the north of the station to serve VIP guests.

STATION AXONOMETRIC Functional Distribution

The whole station is mainly symmetric by the tube located in the center. Arrival platforms located on the west side while departure on the other side. The VIP lounge sits in the center as well as the bottom and becomes a lightspot.

DEPARTURE SEQUENCE

MECHANICAL SYSTEM By using the Spiral system, the arrival and departure sequence has been separated and thus, the two sequences can be as frequent as possible. For each sequence, the frequency for peak time is 30s, loading and unloading time is 2 min.

PHYSICAL MODEL OF HALF STATION

There are two dimensions of the spiral system, the smaller one on the left with a diameter of 8’ serves for the inner shell -- the cartridge, which the larger one on the right with a diameter of 10’ 8” serves for the capsule which is the outer shell.

HYPER-MEDIA

Type: Hyperloop Station Design Based on Site Time: 2015.4-2015.6 __ Partner: Hanxiong Liu Director: Craig Hodgetts __ Instructor: Marta Anna Nowak, David Ross

Hyperloop could act as a media connecting other transportation systems and activate the opportunities of urban development. In this scheme, Los Angeles station is an inter-station between Las Vegas and San Diego. The Spiral machine counts the time accurately and provided non-stop experience to all the passengers.

PICO / ALISO STATION

URBAN STRATEGY Current Condition

The urban condition in the site is deserted, LA river separate the site and is like a scar left there. There is no direct public approach to the site as well as walkable area.

UNION STATION

Our proposal is to renovate the site by activate urban connection to the site, extend public metro, plug-in bike lanes and design pedestrian bridges on the site.

PASSIVE SOLAR HOUSE

Type: House Design with Passive Solar Strategy Date: 2012.6 __ Individual Work Instructor: David Block (Iowa State University)

The house is designed of a simple “L” style at first. Since I need to plug passive solar strategy in the house, I leave the south wall totally french to let the sunshine in. The extention of the house was firstly put up to reach the lake in the north to get a better scenery. Thus, I designed a sense of extention—the walls extend to the far, seemed like they disappear on the ground, so the gable wall was born. The hall was two layers with one height, and it sinks a little than the other space. So when you sit in the couch, you can feel the water level very close to you.

CREATIVE PORT

Type: Urban Renovation of Yangsi Port Date: 2012.11-2013.1 __ Location: Wuhan, China Partner: Bing Guo __ Director: Shidan Cheng

Yangsi Port lies in a significant core area -- the bank of Yangtze River. It has a glorious history for serving the goods handling in the past half century. But it has been deserted for years and desperately needs revolution. We want to hold the original residents here and attract creative young people to infill new energy here. What we have designed is not only simply improves peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s living standard, but also creates a new life style. It will offer young people a platform for showing off their creative ability.

ZIGZAG PLAZA

COMMERCIAL COMPLEX

Type: Wangjia Wan Commercial Complex Date: 2014.3-2014.5 __ Location: Wangjia Wan, Wuhan, China Single Work __ Director: Yan Yuan, Shidan Cheng

Zigzag, located in Wangjia Wan, Wuhan, which would connect Metro Station for both Line 3 and 4 in the future, is a commercial complex that would drive Wangjia Wan district to business boom. Occupying a place of prominence, Zigzag Tower’s slender profile redefines the local skyline. The Center utilizes folded angles to elegantly merge public components in the podium – a departure from conventional towers, where differing program is often relegated to separate and disjointed volumes. Surrounding the tower’s podium, a grand plaza and open space create a new neighborhood landmark and enhance public activity at the street level.

ZIGZAG EXPERIENCE Spacial Distribution

Since on the east side of the plaza, it connects with metro station for Line 3 and 4, the Zigzag Plaza provides entrance directly from the metro station. The main entrance locates on north facade faced toward Hanyang Road, while other secondary entrances distributed around the plaza. Besides, business entrances are separate from commercial ones to different side. The central atrium runs through the whole plaza as by the path â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zigzagâ&#x20AC;?, thus it creates rich and interesting shopping experience for customers.

The Zigzag atrium not only provide passage to every corner of the building, but increase communication from one another as well. The form of the tower is primarily defined by its pioneering steel structural system, which offsets the primary movement. Shifting the cores open the main body of the tower, significantly minimizing the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s structural footprint while maximizing open space.

CONNECTION Part of the path from first layer transfers to the next layer, then part of the path from second layer transfers to the third layer, then the process resembles this principle and finally transfers to the last layer.

In order to “transfer” the path, the linkage rods are connected with each other on vertical plane.

KINETIC MOTION ANALYSIS

RESEMBLANCE While decomposing the umbrella and exploring the moving path it created, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to connect the moving path with the kinetic installation.

KUKA IMMITATION Moving Path Applied on Kuka

Except for the kinetic linkage installation, we also explore the possibility of applying the moving path of umbrella on Kuka Robot. By installing the wax sticks on Kuka, the moving path was transferred to the wax stick. Then we found the wax is a fictile material to express the potential power of moving constraints.

THE GROWING ARCH

Type: Light and Information Workshop Date: 2012.5 __ 3 Person Group Work Duty: Concept, Modeling, Graphic Instructor: Sam Cho(HKU), Wei Mu(HUST)

The workshop focuses on a very specific type of information-light. Light is a very important criteria for design. Our model presents a form of arch and construct a space. The components are combined together by different methods. The LED light goes though the interspace and build an amazing effect.

THE REAL HYPERLOOP

Type: Hyperloop 1:1 Mockup Interior Design Date: 2015.1-2015.3 __ 4 Person Group Work Duty: Seating design, plans, sections, CNC milling, gluing Instructor: David Ross

As to explore the real experience inside the Hyperloop Cartridge, we plug-in the 1:1 seating and lighting system into the Mockup(already built). Starting from measuring the dimension of human figures, we did abundant experiment like putting a simple chair, quick designing a paper chair, or constructing the wooden chair.

PLAN

A-A SECTION

B-B SECTION

We also discussed how many seats we need per row inside the cartridge and in order to leave an aisle for passengersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; need of restroom, finally we kept 3 seat per row to reach a higher cost performance.

CNC MILLING As to construct the interior components into the 1:1 Hyperloop mockup, we split the single seat to two to three pieces and spread several seats on one foam board. By marking the serial number on each piece, it makes easier for us to assemble them back together as a whole seat.

LIGHTING EXPERIENCE Since Hyperloop capsule interior is super-compact, different lighting effect and high-tech device embeded like the side screen can help to provide a comparatively visually capacious space for the passengers.

SUSTAINABLE SYSTEM

SUSTAINABLE STRATEGY Smart City Policy

True heart of the community introduces the theme of underground plaza which allows you to connect pedestrians to both sides of the main road. Particular attention was paid to environmental sustainability. The buildings are powered by electricity produced by photovoltaic panels to south and from wind turbines located between the park and the square. The rainwater is also collected and reused for normal daily activities of users.

The lot is located on a north-south axis, cut lengthwise from a main road recently built. The project idea has been to take a cue from the mountain ranges that span the city, by inserting a series of buildings that mimic the sinuous lines of the hills. The buildings, with variable geometry, housing the facilities for the public in the central part of the area.
