First proposed by the visionary entrepreneur Elon Musk, the hyperloop is a revolutionary high-speed mass transit system that will transport goods and people between cities at close to the speed of sound while seated in capsules that run inside long tubelines.
This is far out of the realm of any of today’s transportation systems. Will it work? Before investing in massively expensive prototypes and test tracks, advanced engineering simulation software from ANSYS can precisely predict what will work and what will not, by letting engineers examine the physics of the hyperloop with real details, all inside a computer.
