  1. 1. Demotivate the theft of bicycles : The development of a bicycle stand to promote cycling

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

    Author : Oliver Ahlström Sundgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Bike Theft; CPTED; Demotivation; Behavioral Design; Persuasive Design; Industrial Design Engineering; Cykelstöld; CPTED; Demotivering; Beteende Design; Övertygande Design; Teknisk Design;

    Abstract : Cycling is a highly beneficial activity that can positively impact individuals, the planet, countries, and cities. It is, therefore, imperative to encourage more people to cycle while reducing obstacles that lead to the use of alternative modes of transportation, such as cars. READ MORE

  2. 2. Linear Impact of Bicycle Helmet – Experimental Testing and FE-modelling

    University essay from KTH/Hållfasthetslära

    Author : Ludvig Dahlin; Ebba Larsson Regnström; [2022]
    Keywords : FEM; Finite element method; bicycle helmet; impact modelling; solid mechanics; FEM; Finita element-metoden; cykelhjälm; islagsmodellering; hållfasthetslära;

    Abstract : The aim with this master thesis was to set up a FE-simulation of an impact test of a bike helmet in LS-DYNA that correlates well with the peak acceleration score of a real life impact test. Furthermore, a parametric study has been performed in LS DYNA to investigate the robustness of the model, as well as to see which parameters have a great influence on the peak acceleration score.

  3. 3. Microscopic traffic simulation of free-riding cyclists in downhills

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

    Author : Jiaxi Chen; Jonathan Lennstring; [2022]
    Keywords : Microscopic simulation; bicycle traffic; modelling; data processing; cyclist’s behaviou; Mikroskopisk simulering; cykeltrafik; modellering; databearbetning; cyklisters beteenden;

    Abstract : A key component of traffic models for simulating bicycle traffic focuses on capturing the interactions between cyclists and the cycling infrastructure. One of the most relevant features of the infrastructure that has a significant impact in bicycle traffic is the gradient of a bicycle path. READ MORE

  4. 4. Dynamic Modelling and Optimal Control of Autonomous Heavy-duty Vehicles

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

    Author : Kartik Seshadri Chari; [2020]
    Keywords : Autonomous driving; Dynamic bicycle model; Magic Formula; Model matching; MPC; Clothoids; Autonom körning; Fordonsmodell; Modellanpassning; MPC; Klothoider;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles have gained much importance over the last decade owing to their promising capabilities like improvement in overall traffic flow, reduction in pollution and elimination of human errors. However, when it comes to long-distance transportation or working in complex isolated environments like mines, various factors such as safety, fuel efficiency, transportation cost, robustness, and accuracy become very critical.

  5. 5. Modelling behavior of cyclists to evaluate bicycle traffic performance

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : GUILLERMO PÉREZ CASTRO; [2020]
    Keywords : Cyclists; bicycle traffic; bicycle modelling; microsimulation; sensitivity analysis; behavior; Vissim;

    Abstract : Over the past years, bicycles started to gain popularity and more people are now using it as amean of transportation. Nowadays, sustainability trends promote cycling as one of the greenestsolutions for the future in mobility. READ MORE
