  1. 1. Causes for Single Accidents Among Pedestrians

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Alba Lunner; Siri Norling; [2023]
    Keywords : Pedestrian; Single accident; Fall accident;

    Abstract : In the traffic environment, pedestrians account for approximately one thirdof injured road users. The vast majority (95%) are single accidents, i.e.,pedestrian falls without any another part involved. READ MORE

  2. 2. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
    Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

  3. 3. People flow maps for socially conscious robot navigation

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Rex Fox O'Loughlin; [2023]
    Keywords : people flow; maps of dynamics; occupancy maps; motion prediction; trajectory dataset;

    Abstract : With robots becoming increasingly common in human occupied spaces, there has been a growing body of research into the problem of socially conscious robot navigation. A robot must be able to predict and anticipate the movements of people around it in order to navigate in a way that is socially acceptable, or it may face rejection and therefore failure. READ MORE

  4. 4. Walking into the Future : Exploring WiFi fingerprinting in pedestrian-oriented planning

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Carl Vilhelm Boström; [2022]
    Keywords : WiFi fingerprinting; WiFi positioning; pedestrian; planning; pedestrian flows; traffic safety; urban planning; traffic planning; micro simulation; interview; Delphi;

    Abstract : In order to investigate what place WiFi fingerprinting has in pedestrian-oriented planning, an interview study was carried out by conducting 12 semi-structured interviews with different actors working in pedestrian-related fields. The actors represent both the private and the public sector, and work in various geographical scales. 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.
