Polymer Tunnel Way Transportation System; Hypothesis Analysis and Material Methodology
Authors

Abstract
The research involves a hypothetical analysis of a new type of transportation system that is driven by the concept of sliding of polymer ball on frictionless surface with appropriate coating. The transportation system consist of the two major components; first the hollow polymer ball to store and carry the cargo in it; and the second is the polymer tunnel tube with hydrophobic coating in it to provide a sliding platform to the cargo ball container. The profile of the sliding tunnel lane is in the shape of smooth parabolic curve with a highly smooth transition of degree of curvature. The tunnel is made in intervals of several miles in separate segments, each segment is elevated from one end and other end is sub grounded in a straight line profile. The elevated part of the tunnel is supported by a elevator tower that will rise the transportation ball to a optimum height and the ball is allowed to slide down the tunnel under the influence of free fall due to gravity. As the surface interface are made nearly frictionless by providing appropriate coating; the loss due to friction is kept minimum as possible for providing longer segments in the tunnel section. A precise monitoring system is maintained between the consecutive cargo balls to avoid any jam or collision.
