3. 22. Exploring how Driver State Monitoring can be Utilized in Heavy-Duty Trucks : Designing a HMI Concept for 2035 with the Driver in Focus

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle

   Author : Emil Larsson; William Press; [2020]
   Keywords : Driver State Monitoring; Heavy-Duty Distribution Truck; HMI; Industrial Design Engineering; Förarbevakningsystem; Distributionslastbil; Teknisk Design; Människa-Maskin-Interaktion;

   Abstract : Driving a heavy-duty distribution truck in an urban environment is an intricate task that requires atremendous effort from the driver. Even a minor error such as briefly looking away from the road for asecond could have fatal consequences. READ MORE

4. 23. Analysis of the energy consumption of the powertrain and the auxiliary systems for battery-electric trucks

   University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

   Author : Guanqiao Song; [2020]
   Keywords : Battery-electric truck; Energy consumption analysis; Battery loss; PT1 battery model; Power Take Off; Sankey diagram; Direct-Current charging; Batterielektrisk lastbil; Energiförbrukningsanalys; Batteriförlust; PT1 batterimodell; Power Take Off; Sankey diagram; Direct-Current charging;

   Abstract : The electrification of the truck is crucial to meet the strategic vision of the European Union (EU) to contribute to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions for all sectors of the economy and society. The battery-electric truck is very efficient to reduce the emissions and has also a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) compared to diesel trucks. READ MORE

5. 24. Road friction estimation using an artificial neural network in a simulated environment

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

   Author : Jonas Karlsson; [2020]
   Keywords : Friction estimation; vehicle dynamics; vehicle simulation; artificial neural networks; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With the transition of responsibilities from the driver to the automated driving systems in vehicles, the systems need to have been tested for an extensive list of test scenarios as the passengers require high trustworthiness. The friction coefficient for the tyre-road friction is of high importance for the control of the vehicle but the coefficient is dependent on the physical complexity and nonlinear behaviour of tyres and is difficult to measure.

6. 25. Batteries and the Electrification of Heavy-Duty Transportation : Battery Development and its Impact on the Provision of Charging Infrastructure in Sweden

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : David Cameron; [2019]
   Keywords : Electrification; batteries; stationary charging; electric road systems; Elektrifiering; batterier; stationär laddinfrastruktur; elvägar;

   Abstract : Due to legislative pressure on a global, European and Swedish level the heavy-duty transportation sector needs to drastically reduce its emissions. One potential pathway forward for the heavy-duty transportation sector is that of electrification, which would require novel infrastructure to be established in the form of stationary charging or dynamic charging through what is often called electric road systems (ERS).
