  1. 1. Station Capacity and Platform Allocation – A Test Case at Linköping Central Station

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Erik Johansson; Hampus Nilsson; [2021]
    Keywords : station capacity; platform allocation; discrete simulation; event-based simulation; railway station; Arena;

    Abstract : Different paths for trains throughout a railway system are more or less convenient, where intersecting train paths require a safety margin in time between different trains to reduce the risks of accidents. Intersecting train paths are just as much of a challenge on a railway station, especially when multiple trains are entering the station close in time. READ MORE

  3. 2. Robust post impact vehicle motion control using torque vectoring

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Nikhil Jain; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Several statistical studies have suggested that the risk of injury is significantly higher in multiple event accidents (MEAs) than in single event crashes. Improper driving in such scenarios leads to hazardous vehicle heading angles and excessive lateral deviations from thevehicle path, resulting in severe secondary crashes. READ MORE

  4. 3. Predictive vehicle motion control for post-crash scenarios

    University essay from KTH/Reglerteknik

    Author : David Nigicser; [2017]
    Keywords : Vehicle Motion Control; Multiple Event Accidents; Secondary Collision Mitigation; Linear Time Varying Model Predictive Control; Torque Vectoring; Sliding Mode Control; NEVS; Fordonsstyrning; Rorelsestyrning; Foljdolyckor; Sekundar kollisionsbek ampning; Linjar Tidsvarierande Modellprediktiv Reglering; Momentvektorering; Sliding mode-reglering; NEVS;

    Abstract : The aim of the project is to design an active safety system forpassenger vehicles for mitigating secondary collisions after an initialimpact. The control objective is to minimize the lateral deviationfrom the known original path while achieving a safe heading angle afterthe initial collision. READ MORE

  5. 4. Design and Implementation of a Wireless Sensor Network for Smart Home Applications

    University essay from KTH/Reglerteknik

    Author : Mekikis Prodromos-Vasileios; [2012]
    Keywords : Wireless Sensor Network; Optimal data fusion; Detection; Estimation; Kalman filter;

    Abstract : In smart homes devices take partial control of the house and make decisions that increase its safety and functionality. Due to the high cost of cable installation, wireless sensor networks are considered to be a good choice for smart home systems. READ MORE

  6. 5. Methods for Verification of Post-Impact Control including Driver Interaction

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Javier Beltran Gutierrez; Song Yujiao; [2011]
    Keywords : Verification of function; Multiple Event Accidents; Active safety;

    Abstract : This thesis project focuses on the verification method of a safety function called PICthat stands for Post-Impact Control which controls the vehicle motion of passengercars after being exposed to external disturbances produced by a 1st impact, aiming atavoiding or mitigating secondary events.The main objective was to select a promising method, among several candidates, todevelop further for testing the function and the interaction with the driver.
