1. 1. Aerodynamics simulations of Scania trucks using OpenFOAM

   University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

   Author : Ziyi Liu; [2024]
   Keywords : Heavy-duty truck; Computational fluid dynamics; Air drag; OpenFOAM;

   Abstract : In the field of heavy-duty vehicles, fuel efficiency and environmental protection are factors that need to be focused on, while the aerodynamic drag generated during vehicle travelling is one of the most influential aspects. This thesis delves into the aerodynamic simulation of Scania trucks using the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool, OpenFOAM v2206. READ MORE

3. 2. Assessing the economic and environmental impacts of leasing batteries for electric vehicle fleets

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

   Author : Miguel Angel Gonzalez Salazar; Georgios Kormazos; [2023]
   Keywords : circularity; LCA; NPV; leasing; batteries; electric vehicles;

   Abstract : Battery electric vehicles (BEV) powered by renewable energy are expected to enable a largedecarbonization of the land-based transport. Recent estimations of the International EnergyAgency suggest that BEVs could grow 20-fold by 2030, reaching 200 to 350 million unitsglobally. READ MORE

4. 3. GPU-Based Path Optimization Algorithm in High-Resolution Cost Map with Kinodynamic Constraints : Using Non-Reversible Parallel Tempering

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

   Author : Daniel Greenberg; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis introduces a GPU-accelerated algorithm for path planning under kinodynamic constraints, focusing on navigation of flying vehicles within a high-resolution cost map. The algorithm operates by creating dynamically feasible initial paths, and a non-reversible parallel tempering Markov chain Monte Carlo scheme to optimize the paths while adhering to the nonholonomic kinodynamical constraints.

5. 4. Safety and Security in AutonomousVehicles : A Systematic Literature Review

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DM)

   Author : Amirhossein Soltaninejad; Mohammad Ali Rashidfarokhi; [2023]
   Keywords : Autonomous Vehicles; Autonomous Driving AD ; sensors; LiDAR; RADAR; Intelligent Transportation System ITS ; Safety; Security;

   Abstract : A transformative revolution in transportation is coming with the advent of Au-tonomous Vehicles (AVs), which are expected to increase mobility, reduce trafficcongestion, and save fuel. Although AVs present significant advantages, they alsopose substantial challenges, particularly when it comes to security and safety. READ MORE

6. 5. Towards Cloud Native Context Aware Autonomous Robotics for IoT Applications

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Datavetenskap

   Author : Daniel Olave; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Sensor networks are widely deployed around the world to measure different environmental variables over time, this general acceptance lowered the cost of installing such systems, but sometimes the requirement of the measuring makes it expensive or impossible to do. For instance, deploying sensors in a hard-to-reach area or just measuring for a brief short of time. READ MORE
