  1. 16. Comparative Study of Dissuasive Emergency Signage

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Joakim Olander; [2015]
    Keywords : Dissuasive; emergency signage; exit signage; paired comparison; evacuation; dynamic signage systems; path choice; risk perception; urgency; avrådande; utrymningsskyltning; jamförelsestudie; utrymning; aktivt system; val av utrymningsväg; riskperception; brådska; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates dissuasive emergency signage conveying a message of not utilizing a specific exit door. The thesis analyzes and highlights which features of dissuasive emergency signage have the largest impact on observer preference, interpretation and noticeability of the signage, in addition to analyzing the possibility and effects of causing an increased sense of urgency amongst the observers.

  2. 17. Developing a strategic controller with haptic and audio feedback for autonomous driving

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Sonia Guijarro; Alexander Andjelkovic; [2015]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Traffic accidents cause over 1.2 million deaths, and tens of millions of people are injured or disabled every year. Advanced driver assistant systems and other safety features have the possibility to reduce traffic accidents but do not account for human errors. Studies show that over 90% of all traffic accidents are caused by human errors. READ MORE

  3. 18. Exploring the concept of feedback with perspectives from psychology and cognitive science

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Interaktiva och kognitiva system; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

  4. 19. Creating Resilience – A Matter of Control or Computation? : Resilience Engineering explored through the lenses of Cognitive Systems Engineering and Distributed Cognition in a patient safety case study

    University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap; Filosofiska fakulteten

    Author : Tomas Lundqvist; [2013]
    Keywords : Resilience Engineering; Cognitive Systems Engineering; Distributed Cognition; Extended Control Model; ECOM; Three-Level Analysis Framework;

    Abstract : In recent years, the research approach known as Resilience Engineering (RE) has offered a promising new way of understanding safety-critical organizations, but less in the way of empirical methods for analysis. In this master’s thesis, an extensive comparison was made between RE and two different research approaches on cognitive systems: Distributed Cognition (DC) and Cognitive Systems Engineering (CSE) with the aim of exploring whether these approaches can contribute to the analysis and understanding of resilience.

  5. 20. Putting a FRAMe on the VTS : A systems analysis of the Vessel Traffic Service using the Functional Resonance Analysis Method

    University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap; Filosofiska fakulteten

    Author : Sjölin Victor; [2013]
    Keywords : Vessel Traffic Service VTS ; Maritime Safety; Functional Resonance Analysis Method FRAM ; Cognitive Systems Engineering;

    Abstract : The Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) is a complex system tasked with ensuring the safety of navigation within specified areas known as VTS areas. Earlier research in the domain has often focused on the decision support systems and other tools employed by the VTS operators to provide the vessels in the area with VTS services. READ MORE
