| Skills to be acquired in this module | The students are enabled to understand the basic concepts of Hyperloop technologies, an overview of components and safety requirements. The students gain competences in resource planning and procurement in addition to engineering and physics expertise. The application of complex tasks in Hyperloop technologies is imparted using exemplary the development of laboratory demonstrators and experimental vehicles. The students have an overview on the hyperloop transportation ecosystem and a deepened knowledge in practical applications by working on subtasks independently, problems and solu- tion approaches are coordinated in a multidisciplinary and international team, solutions are implemented or designed and documented in a comprehensible way. Part of the course will be an online seminar with presentations from students and industry experts about stateof-the-art research topics on Hyperloop Technology. An optionally excursion to a hyperloop facility enables the students to transfer the acquired course knowledge to practical experience. |
