  1. 1. Intelligent Headlamp Levelling : Thesis work at Scania CV AB

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

    Author : Peder Palm Lamerstedt; Christopher Fingalsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Headlamp Levelling; Automatic Levelling; Automotive headlamp Levelling;

    Abstract : Illumination of the road environment plays an important role for the night-time vision of the driver and in general road safety. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a proof of concept that can measure the vertical angular displacement of a truck headlamp relative to the road. READ MORE

  3. 2. Estimation of severe crash frequency using two surrogates

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Zhankun Chen; [2022]
    Keywords : Multivariate Extreme Value distributions; Copula; Extreme Value Theory; Crash frequency; Surrogate Meausre of Safety; Road safety; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the estimation of crash frequency based on the bivariate modeling of surrogate measures of safety (SMoS), which serve as indicators for traffic risk. Using the SMoS, any traffic conflict between two road users can be described by their proximity together with their hypothetical consequence. READ MORE

  4. 3. Traffic safety analysis by surrogate measures:an extreme value approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Heidi Mach; [2022]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Road safety analyses are required for the prevention of road accident fatalities. In Europe, the ambition is "Vision Zero". Data that was used is collected by the research group Transport and Roads which is part of Department of Technology and Society at LTH, Lund University. READ MORE

  5. 4. Sensor fusion for estimating vehicle chassis movement

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Edwin Solomon Arthur Paul; Sanjay Varadharajan; [2021]
    Keywords : Sensor fusion; Vehicle dynamics; State estimation; Sensors; Sensorfusion; Fordonsdynamik; Skattning av parametrar; Sensorer;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis work is to investigate the possibility of applying a sensor fusion algorithm with a focus on estimating vehicle dynamic states, mainly the vehicle body accelerations. Modern passenger vehicles have several mechatronic systems such as active safety, comfort, driver assistance etc. READ MORE

  6. 5. Risk-aware Autonomous Driving Using POMDPs and Responsibility-Sensitive Safety

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

    Author : Caroline Skoglund; [2021]
    Keywords : Computer Science - Robotics; Autonomous driving; partially observable Markov decision process; motion planning under uncertainty; risk estimation;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles promise to play an important role aiming at increased efficiency and safety in road transportation. Although we have seen several examples of autonomous vehicles out on the road over the past years, how to ensure the safety of autonomous vehicle in the uncertain and dynamic environment is still a challenging problem.
