  1. 1. Aerodynamics simulations of Scania trucks using OpenFOAM

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Ziyi Liu; [2024]
    Keywords : Heavy-duty truck; Computational fluid dynamics; Air drag; OpenFOAM;

    Abstract : In the field of heavy-duty vehicles, fuel efficiency and environmental protection are factors that need to be focused on, while the aerodynamic drag generated during vehicle travelling is one of the most influential aspects. This thesis delves into the aerodynamic simulation of Scania trucks using the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool, OpenFOAM v2206. READ MORE

  2. 2. Data-Driven Reachability Analysis of Pedestrians Using Behavior Modes : Reducing the Conservativeness in Data-Driven Pedestrian Predictions by Incorporating Their Behavior

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

    Author : August Söderlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Data-driven reachability analysis; Autonomous vehicles; Automated safety; Autonomous situational awareness; Datadriven nåbarhetsanalys; Autonoma fordon; Automatiserad säkerhet; Autonom situationsmedvetenhet;

    Abstract : Predicting the future state occupancies of pedestrians in urban scenarios is a challenging task, especially considering that conventional methods need an explicit model of the system, hence introducing data-driven reachability analysis. Data-driven reachability analysis uses data, inherently produced by an unknown system, to perform future state predictions using sets, generally represented by zonotopes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Safety and Security in AutonomousVehicles : A Systematic Literature Review

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DM)

    Author : Amirhossein Soltaninejad; Mohammad Ali Rashidfarokhi; [2023]
    Keywords : Autonomous Vehicles; Autonomous Driving AD ; sensors; LiDAR; RADAR; Intelligent Transportation System ITS ; Safety; Security;

    Abstract : A transformative revolution in transportation is coming with the advent of Au-tonomous Vehicles (AVs), which are expected to increase mobility, reduce trafficcongestion, and save fuel. Although AVs present significant advantages, they alsopose substantial challenges, particularly when it comes to security and safety. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interventions to Reduce Car Use: A Meta-Analysis

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Ester Al-Salehi; [2023]
    Keywords : Interventions; Car use reduction; Policy measure; Intervention effect; Transport effect.;

    Abstract : Transportation has become an essential part of people's lives to move from one place to another, increasing the transport mobility for passengers. Therefore, road transport accounts for the second largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in Europe, and to increased congestion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Advancement of Supercapacitor in Automotive Applications

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Murali Mohan; Sreekanth Vijayan; [2023]
    Keywords : : hybrid electric vehicles HEVs ; battery-supercapacitor energy storage system; topology; supercapacitor;

    Abstract : The rising use of fossil fuels and the resulting rise in environmental harm have fueled the advancement of automobiles that are fuel-efficient. A severe existential challenge facing the planet earth has given rise to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which have developed from their incipient stage and are shown promise as a solution. READ MORE
