  1. 1. Automatic context-dependent driver attention monitoring using eye tracking and digital maps

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk teknik

    Author : Anna Jonsson; Linnéa Holmqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Driver distraction is a contributing factor to car accidents here a warning system could potentially prevent some of these accidents by making the driver aware of distraction and redirecting the focus back to driving-related activities. The purpose of this work is to better understand where drivers direct their attention while driving and where the attention should be directed for the driver to be considered attentive. READ MORE

  3. 2. Climate and Conflict in Somalia : Drought as an Exacerbation of State-Based Violence

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Author : Sara Lahti; [2023]
    Keywords : Climate change; drought; armed conflict; state-based violence; Somalia;

    Abstract : As the effects of climate change grow more severe, scholars and policymakers have paid increased attention to the intersection of climate and conflict. This study examines one subset of that crossing: how drought leads to the exacerbation of state-based violence. READ MORE

    Abstract : Is it possible to increase traffic flows and decrease stand stills in rush hour traffic by tweaking existing traffic light signals? A vehicle’s engine running on idle is not useful in physical terms and emits unnecessary exhausts. By investigating and observing signal phase times on site in Hangzhou, China, an effort was made to find out if it was possible to get better flow and thus lower emissions by changing the traffic signal programs.

  5. 4. Energy-saving impacts of intelligent speed guidance at signalized intersections for different driver behaviors and vehicle powertrains

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Yuxuan Yang; [2022]
    Keywords : Signalized Intersection; Bounded Rationality; Speed Guidance; Energy-saving; Electric Vehicle;

    Abstract : In order to control the energy consumed by vehicles for crossing signalized intersections, this project designs and tests a speed guidance energy-saving strategy for signalized intersections, taking drivers’ bounded rationality into consideration. This research achieves speed guidance by developing theoretical foundation of speed guidance, dividing scenarios for practise of speed guidance, and calculating optimal trajectories for vehicles.
