  1. 1. DRONAR: Obstacle echolocation using ego-noise

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Henrik Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Drone; Autonomous systems; Obstacle avoidance; Sound; Noise; Planning; SONAR; Ego-noise; Multi-rotor aerial vehicle; Unmanned areal vehicle; Drönare; Autonoma system; Hinderundvikning; Ljud; Oljud; Planering; SONAR; Egenljud; Multirotorfordon; Obemannat luftfordon;

    Abstract : You do not want your drone to crash. Therefore, safety systems should be put in place to prevent such an event, and obstacle avoidance is a major part of this. Today, the most successful techniques use cameras or light detection and ranging (LIDAR) to find and avoid obstacles; but to improve resiliency, multiple systems should be used. READ MORE

  3. 2. Adaptive Cruise Control and Platooning With Tire Slip Awareness

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Filip Henriksson; Gustaf Reimer; [2022]
    Keywords : Platooning; tire slip; car following; C-ACC; autonomous driving;

    Abstract : Platooning is a method where a chain of vehiclesdrive with small inter-vehicular distances. The many benefitsof autonomous platooning includes improved fuel economy,less congestion and safer transportation. To create a safe andfunctional platoon the operational software needs to be able tohandle various road surfaces without the risk of a crash. READ MORE

  4. 3. Improved side impact car safety : New IIHS side crash regulation, effect on product design

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

    Author : Andreas Bäckman; [2022]
    Keywords : Side impact beam; IIHS; side crash; side impact crash testing; crash testing of automobiles; industrial design engineering; automotive design; product design; Sidokrockskydd; IIHS; sidokrock; sidokollision; sidokrocktestning; krocktest av bilar; teknisk design; bildesign; produktdesign;

    Abstract : 23% of passenger vehicle occupant deaths in 2019 was side-impact collisions and is a ongoing problem that continues to take people’s lives (IIHS, 2021a). IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) is an organization based in USA, which performs vehicle crash tests with the goal of making cars safer and reducing deaths and injuries. READ MORE

  5. 4. Convolutions on graphs for learning vehicle crash behaviour

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Daniel Adin; [2021-11-09]
    Keywords : Computer; science; computer science; engineering; graph; convolutions; inite element method; project; thesis;

    Abstract : Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have shown successful results in the recent years, especially within the area of image analysis. The idea of learning to predict the result of a crash simulation using machine learning rose from the analogy between images and Finite Element models (FE-models) used in crash simulations.

  6. 5. Rear end crash simulation using Human Body Models : An investigation of the design of seat structure using a 50th percentile female Human Body Model

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Jacob Fagerström; [2020]
    Keywords : Human body model; Car crash; Finite element method;

    Abstract : In this master thesis it have been investigated how the stiffness of a seat affect the risk of neck injuries, e.g whiplash associated disorders, in a rear end low velocity car collision using a female human body model, HBM, and if dividing the seat into several sections with different stiffnesses.
