HYPERLOOP ROUTE RESEARCH UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2014 INSTRUCTORS: CRAIG HODGETTS, MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

A. Research: Study of historical and current routes and modes of long distance transportation. B. Analysis: Analyzing current conditions of travel and ridership, density, travel time between cities, speed of travel across United States, then investigating different routes along existing infrastructure such as train, highway, farmlands, etc. and studying their geography like elevation, curvature, distance and also land ownership. C. Strategy: Creating a strategy for Hyperloop route layout, considering additional stations and accordingly determine capsule load and frequencies. D. Tube and pylon design: Taking into consideration the route conditions, a preliminary design for the tubes and pylons keeping in mind the structure, egress, etc. Two strategies for a network in the United States have been proposed on the basis of - a. Megaregions & b. Statistics Three strategies for the route between L.A. and Vegas have been proposed on the basis of - a. Highway system b. Freight railroad & c. The fastest possible route.

FLIGHT VS. HYPERLOOP As a test, a graph was drawn to check the feasibility of the Hyperloop for long distance travel as opposed to a flight, considering the long check-in and wait hours at the airport. This test was done considering L.A. and New York as end points, and the test was done for two cases - in case of non stop travel between the two points and in case of a travel with 4 stops (approximately every 400 mi). In both cases Hyperloop proved to be more

HYPERLOOP INTERMEDIATE STATION UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2015 INSTRUCTORS: CRAIG HODGETTS, MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

The brief was to propose and create conceptual designs and provide solutions for operational challenges of the station, amenities and seating within capsule, etc. A. Capsule design: Look into seating and storage layouts to achieve maximum comfort, convenience and efficiency. B. Station design: Refined concepts for the station, including designs for how it will actually operate in terms of passenger circulation, auto and transport links, capsule circulation, etc. This station and capsule design serves the city lying in between two terminal cities. Hence, it differs from other stations in terms of context, ridership and scale.. The design is guided by the mandatory branching of tubes that is caused due to the route and the speed of capsules.

STATION CONTEXT

Considering the AYSU terminalUNAL station locations SRUTHI KUMAR ZEYNEP

as San Francisco and Los Angeles, the intermediate station was assumed to be located at Fresno. Capsules will be travelling at their maximum speed at that point of their journey. Hence, branching of the tube has to be taken into consideration. The bend radii and time taken for acceleration and deceleration are used to determine the distances.

ECONOMY CAPSULE Cartridge with End Loading System Commuter capsule: Provides basic comfort but also accommodates as many passengers as possible since it would be an economy capsule that may travelx one way 120° 120° for only upto 15 mins. Inserting capsules from the intermediate branch of tube to the main branch may cause disruptions to the flow of capsules. To 3'-3" 3'-3" avoid this, Rush Hour capsules and cartridges are proposed. There are 3 scenarios 1. Regular hours: One capsule and 4. 5 sec 3. 5 sec cartridge enter and exit the intermediate station at a time. 2. Morning Rush Hours: During morning rush hours there are more people traveling from intermediate city to the main station 3. 5 sec 2. 5 sec (for work purposes) than people traveling back to the intermediate station. Hence, a single capsule with a cartridge arrives at x the station 8. 5 sec and leaves with an addition of a 6. 5 sec rush hour capsule and cartridge. 3.

THE ROOF The roof acts like a wrap binding the tubes together. Surfaces continue from the top to the sides to the bottom covering parts of the station and leaving the rest open. The roof is made of metal that reflects the surroundings and two surfaces facing the top have solar panels that respond to sunlight. The bottom surface of the roof has a uniform color painted on to the surface that ends up merging into the road and pavement on the ground level.

HYPERLOOP TERMINAL

UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2015 INSTRUCTORS: CRAIG HODGETTS, MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

Site location : East of Union station on the eastern bank of Los Angeles river. Expected to design a Hyperloop station and supporting urban infrastructure. Following numbers can be assumed - Arrival/ departure of one capsule every 30 seconds with a peak capacity of 30 passengers. - Arrival/ departure peak throughput of 3,600 passengers/ hour The proposed station works on a decentralized system where the passengers can access the station only via paths that lead to the station from either identified public transit systems or decentralized parking lots. All the layers of the station are entirely designed based on a grid that comes from the circulation of the capsule and cartridge. The entire system is designed to work like a machine so as to be efficient in circulation and movement. LINKS FOR REFERENCE |Urban Analysis Animation |Projec-

DECENTRALIZED CONNECTIONS Busiest transit stops were identified around the site that fell within areas that were approachable by walk, bikes or small Em’s. Unused warehouses and parking lots were also identified within that area to decentralize the parking. Connecting all of these are pathways that run along the river and branch out when necessary. 53

TUBE SECTION STUDY 3 sections for the tube were studied in relation to the freeway and bridge. Having the tubes pass over the freeway and bridge keeps the option of retaining the railway tracks in case of future requirement for connectivity to the station and encourages circulation under the tubes. 55

PLUG - IN LA

UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2014 INSTRUCTORS: CRAIG HODGETTS, MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

Site location : West L.A. The project started with a research of existing and proposed electric cars and electric charging technologies, projected technological advancements and utopian visions related to the electric and autonomous vehicles. Next, an urban analysis was done for a sub-region within L.A. : West L.A. which included neighborhoods Venice, Mar Vista, Marina Del Rey, Playa Vista, Playa Del Rey and Westchester. Finally, a network of charging stations was proposed for now and the next decade and an ultimate site was determined to serve as an ideal test case for stationary charging stations. Proposal Vehicles that dispatch from metro stations, pick up the user when called and return to the station. Instead of charging on a grid, they charge independently by the sun. They continuously traverse the roof of each station, which is optimized for solar radiation exposure and return to the ground plane when called. These hubs are designed to interface between human and autonomous movement.

TRANSFORMABLE GARAGE WALL UCLA SUPRASTUDIO INSPIRED BY: BMW

| M. ARCH

| 2015

An assigned company had to be researched for their current trends, future goals, core values, etc and connections had to be found with the discipline of architecture. The final goal was to prepare a pitch for the company with a proposal for that company, related to architecture. Assigned company : BMW Proposal : Transformable Garage Walls For a brand like BMW that resonates luxury and cutting edge technology, it is only justified that we make the cars sit in more luxurious spaces that reflect the car, its owner and the owner’s needs. This thought led to the idea of BMW transformable garage walls. A wall that transforms to serve the car and its owner and does so in style. The wall adopts the aesthetics of the car and reflects its colors and materials, hence making the garage an extension of the car. As a context, the following design has been done for the garage of an uber luxurious i8 owner in Los Angeles who is a well known rapper and singer. The garage keeps in mind the features of the car and predicts what the owner would need with a feature like the transformable wall and responds to it. 92

Each panel has its own function that can serve the car, the space or the owner. These panels are slid or pivoted according to the function behind the panel. The panels while sliding, fit into each other like a puzzle.

HOT WIRE & HOT MASS UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2014 INSTRUCTORS: MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

Through a series of digital models investigating surface logics and mechanized safe-path studies within operable robotic envelopes, expanding and merging explorations of ruled surface construction and volumetric form making through the implementation of the hot wire cutter and end-arm tool using the 6-axis large and small Kuka robot platform. As the work was primarily linked to large format wire cutters, models of division and surface continuity was rigorously looked at from foam block to foam block and part to whole.

INCREMENTALITY IN TIME The initial study showed that the mutations that a curve can go through along time can be represented while it is being rotated on a vertical plane. The 16" x 16" x 16" cube was used as a time unit, without it being defined using standard measurements. Increments that are derived by this mutation and notion of time are expressed on two of the surfaces on the mass. 105

Although the curve mutations occur along the mass, there was another external parameter that acted on its creation, the hotwire, which was not manifested on the final form. By rotating the mass along its path, and as the aforementioned mutations occur, the two movements are counterbalanced and ROTATION represented. Althoughequally the curve mutations occur along the mass, there was another external parameter

that acted on its creation, the hotwire, which was not manifested in the final form. By rotating the mass along its path and as the aforementioned mutations occur, the two movements are counterbalanced and equally represented. 108

AGGREGATED CONTINUUM UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2014 INSTRUCTORS: JULIA KOERNER, GUVENC OZEL

Through a survey of modeling and animation software Maya, an assigned platonic solid had to be modeled and following operations were to be applied to create a puzzle- Subdivision, patterning, 3 dimensionalization - Relation, translation and collision - Dividing, fitting and aligning 2 sets of negative and positive geometry were created. Each icosahedron had either a negative geometry on each face or a positive one. Hence, the icosahedrons could be connected to form an infinite aggregated continuum in various patterns.

UCLA SUPRASTUDIO | M. ARCH | 2015 INSTRUCTORS: CRAIG HODGETTS, MARTA NOWAK, DAVID ROSS

1. Projection of still images to a 2’x2’x2’ cube : This was done to get familiarized with the projector-object relationship and with projection mapping softwares. 2. Projection of animation to a fabricated volume : The study of lines was continued to be experimented on a curved surface to explore distortions. 3. Capsule experience : To help imagine, simulate and test environments of the interior of the capsule. The boarding and unboarding process is the focus. To help imagine it better, the projections are made to interact with actors performing in the capsule.
