  1. 1. Path Choice Estimation in Urban Rails : Asimulation based optimisation for frequency-based assignment model

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alexander Adolfsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Black-Box Optimisation; Optimization; Simulation based optimisation; Transit Network; Automaton; Urban Transport; Public transportation; Black-Box optimering; Optimering; Simuleringsbaserad Optimering; Transportsystem; Automation; Local Transport; Kollektivtrafik;

    Abstract : Transit system have a large importance in modern urban cities, with urban rail often acting as the central system with it efficient travel time and great capacity. As cities grow in population, so to does the usage of urban rail resulting in increased crowding on the platform and in the trains. READ MORE

  3. 2. 1D LIDAR Speed and Motion for the Internet-of-Things : For Railroad Classification Yards

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Edward Chancellor; Kasper Oikarinen; [2021]
    Keywords : LIDAR; Trains; Internet of Things; Motion-tracking; Rail transportation; Railroad classification yards.; LIDAR; Tåg; Sakernas internet; Rörelsespårning; Tågtrafik; Rangerbangårdar.;

    Abstract : This thesis is an investigation into the feasibility of one-dimensional Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensors for tracking the position and motion of trains on railroad classification yards. Carefully monitoring railway traffic in these areas is important, in order to avoid accidents, optimise logistical operations and hence reduce delays. READ MORE

  4. 3. Making obsolescence obsolete - A practical study of obsolescence management theory in the context of a truck OEM

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Andreas Janson; Jonatan Norman; [2020-07-22]
    Keywords : disruption; disruptive innovation; disruptive technologies; obsolescence; obsolescence management; truck OEM; trucking industry;

    Abstract : Truck manufacturers are facing unprecedented technological disruptions from electrification, digitalization and automation. When disrupted, sustainment-dominated industries such as the trucking industry, face increased risks of component and system obsolescence, which might lead to skyrocketing costs and diminishing aftermarket service.

  5. 4. Simulation of air quality in underground train stations

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Benjamin Söderberg; [2020]
    Keywords : PM10; aerosols; air pollution; particulate matter; emission factors; underground train station; PM10; luftkvalité; tåg; emissionsfaktorer; underjordiska tågstationer;

    Abstract : Particulate matter (PM) is a widespread air pollutant of microscopic particles that are suspended in the atmosphere. There is high concentration of PM in underground train stations and tunnels. The concentration of particulate matter (PM10) measured in Stockholm’s metro varies significantly between day and nighttime traffic of trains. READ MORE

  6. 5. Passenger Influence on Dwell Time : A Case Study on the Light Rail Transit Line Tvärbanan in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori
