The creators hoverboard plans to teach a house fly during earthquakes Bashny.Net

Researchers have developed a hoverboard (Board, soaring through the magnets), shared their plans to save homes from earthquakes. They believe that in the case of a natural disaster the building can be lifted from the ground using a giant magnet, and this manipulation will help to avoid damage.

Greg Henderson (Greg Henderson), co-founder and CEO of Arx Pax, said that already has a patent for a system using water and gas, which will also allow you to tear house from the ground. But the new version will be based on magnets, rather than liquids. This project was developed for about a year.

"Our goal is to eliminate the structural motion, explains Henderson. – It is necessary to calculate the exact time when object needs to raise their chassis and howardville – activated".

ArxPax uses magnets to create a field, similar to what allows Maglev trains to travel on an air cushion. In this case there is no friction, and the opportunity to travel at superfast speeds.

In order to make a three-story building to soar in the next 90 seconds (the average duration of a series of earthquake tremors), you must use the energy of the five car batteries, which, according to Arx Pax, about $ 13.





 

 

Instead of building large water-filled bases and foundations, new project Arx Pax requires the installation of earthquake-proof base and howardville.

"The Foundation system consists of three parts, and it can provide real protection in earthquakes, floods and rising sea levels. These parts – protective frame buffer environment and platform. The building will stand directly on the platform, and the buffer medium can be filled with a liquid, liquefied gas or substance," explains Henderson.

If the buffer medium is a liquid, the platform may be designed in such a way that the building will hang on it like a float in the lake. The medium should be selected so that seismic waves do not transmit energy to it, the water just has this property.

After receiving a warning about the earthquake, the computer includes howardville that raise the building (they only need one second).

The developers also noted that in the patent they included software Shake Alert — an early warning system of earthquakes.

The program uses the geophysical network operated by the University of California at Berkeley, California Institute of technology, the University of Washington and Geology USA. He has successfully detect earthquakes in California and warn them before people felt the tremors.

Arx Pax call their new Alliance a valuable tool for architects, engineers and developers who are looking for better ways to build in the regions, often suffering from such kind of disasters.

It is also likely that this technology will continue to be modified for various other applications, for example for the aircraft industry, in search of more effective systems for takeoff. published
