  1. 1. Development of an electric driveline model for multiscale road-cargo simulations

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

    Author : Runzhe Wu; [2022]
    Keywords : System Engineering; AnyLogic Traffic Simulation; Simulink Simulation; Driveline Model Building; C Program Execution; Systemteknik; AnyLogic Trafiksimulering; Simulink Simulering; Drivelinemodell; C Programexekvering;

    Abstract : Currently, the road cargo system with low or zero CO2 emission is under rapid development. Heavy-duty trucks with electrified driveline systems will be the workhorse of future freight. READ MORE

  3. 2. Digitalization in the rail industry: Localizing damaged cargo wagons using spatial operations and big data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Julia Hellner; [2021]
    Keywords : physical geography and ecosystem analysis; big data; clustering; digitization; geofence; geomatics; GNSS; maintenance; rail; spatial analysis; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change and the sustainability challenges of the 21st century require the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in all sectors. Accordingly, political objectives urge for a shift from road to rail in logistics. This drives innovation, increased efficiency, and customer friendliness in the rail industry. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigation of sources of wheel-rail impact force deviation through dynamic simulations

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Sumanth Ram Aravindababu; [2021]
    Keywords : Multi-body simulations; wheel damages; rail damage; damage thresholds; wheel-rail impact forces; classification; Flerkroppssimulering; hjulskador; rälskador; skadetrösklar; hjulslagkraft; rälslagkraft; klassificering;

    Abstract : Due to the increase in demand on freight transportation it becomes necessary to avoid delays to ensure that the goods reach its destination on time. The main factors causing disturbances in the traffic on the mainline is the breakdown of vehicles mainly due to damaged wheels. READ MORE

  5. 4. Multiple Time Series Analysis of Freight Rate Indices

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik
