  1. 1. Vehicle dynamics modelling of electromagnetic suspensions for MAGLEV applications

    University essay from KTH/Väg- och spårfordon samt konceptuell fordonsdesign

    Author : Léa Chatelais; [2024]
    Keywords : MAGLEV; Dynamics; Requirements; Suspension; Vehicle modeling; MATLAB; MAGLEV; Dynamisk; Fordran; Upphängning; Fordon modell; MATLAB;

    Abstract : MAGnetic LEVitation Guidance System (MAGLEV) technology was commercially introduced relatively recently in the guided transport field. It is based on removing the wheels and rails of classic railway systems and supporting and guiding the train with magnets and magnetic forces instead. READ MORE

  3. 2. Opportunities with Modular Systems in Level Crossings : A Case Study in the Swedish Railway Industry

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

    Author : Marcus Ankaräng; [2023]
    Keywords : level crossing; railway; modular system; systems engineering; systems development; plankorsning; järnväg; modulsystem; systemteknik; systemutveckling;

    Abstract : Level crossings are a dangerous part of railways, causing several deaths every year. While the safest solution is to remove crossings altogether using bridges or tunnels, this is complicated and cannot be done on a large scale. Many level crossings will therefore continue to exist.

  4. 3. Data Augmentations for Improving Vision-Based Damage Detection : in Land Transport Infrastructure

    University essay from KTH/Lantmäteri – fastighetsvetenskap och geodesi

    Author : Punnawat Siripatthiti; [2023]
    Keywords : Computer Vision; Data Augmentation; Object Detection; Crack Detection; Road Damage Detection; Sleeper Defect Detection; datorseende; dataökning; objektdetektering; sprickdetektering; vägbeläggning; järnvägsslipers;

    Abstract : Crack, a typical term most people know, is a common form of distress or damage in road pavements and railway sleepers. It poses significant challenges to their structural integrity, safety, and longevity. Over the years, researchers have developed various data-driven technologies for image-based crack detection in road and sleeper applications. READ MORE

  5. 4. Ribersborgs strandstråk : hållbar upprustning av urbana stråk utifrån besökares olika hastigheter

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Frida Westberg Ekerljung; [2023]
    Keywords : social hållbarhet; shared space; trafikintegrering; trafikseparering; gång- och cykelstråk;

    Abstract : På obebyggd mark finns potential att utveckla städer. Här konkurrerar grönområdens attraktivitet med behovet av bostäder. På områden mellan husen tenderar efterfrågan på fler funktioner öka liksom variationen av trafikslag som ska samsas där. READ MORE

  6. 5. Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Transport Infrastructure Construction : Reaching the Swedish Transport Administration's climate reduction targets with greenhouse gas reduction measures in the production phase of the most recurring materials

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Author : Pontus Sallerström; Sam Falakeh; [2023]
    Keywords : Transport infrastructure; Swedish Transport Administration; Greenhouse gas; Transport construction sector; LCA; Industrial Ecology; Transportinfrastruktur; Trafikverket; Växthusgas; Transportbyggnadssektorn; LCA; Industriell ekologi; Klimatkalkyl;

    Abstract : I Sverige står byggsektorn för 25% av landets totala utsläpp av växthusgaser, där material står för mer än hälften av dessa utsläpp [1][2][3]. De största bidragsgivarna är stål och betong, men även material som aluminium och asfalt har en betydande miljöpåverkan. READ MORE
