This document outlines the major subsystem teams and subteams for a hyperloop project. The seven major subsystem teams are compressor/levitation system, aerodynamics/CFD, structures, power/thermal, propulsion/acceleration/braking, testing/experimental, and human factors/user experience. Each major team has defined responsibilities over aspects of the vehicle design. Additional task forces and roles include reliability/safety, CAD, reporting, economics, and command and control systems. The number and definitions of teams and roles may change as the project evolves.
