  1. 11. Fish oil in Icelandic road constructions. : A case study of bituminous binder mixtures modified with bio-oil.

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och banteknik

    Author : Arnar Ágústsson; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis an extensive background study on the use of bio-oil modified binder, used in surface dressings in Iceland, was carried out. Surface dressings, or chip seals, are paved by first spraying out binder and then distributing aggregates over the surface before compaction. READ MORE

  3. 12. Probabilistic Lane Association

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Elin Dahlin; [2014]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Lane association is the problem of determining in which lane a vehicle is currently driving, which is of interest for automated driving where the vehicle must understand its surroundings. Limited to highway scenarios, a method combining data from different sensors to extract information about the currently associated lane is presented. READ MORE
