  1. 16. Unity 3D Traffic Simulation investigating the impacts of safe distance on traffic flow : Investigating how safe distance impacts traffic flow on a one lane highway during three road scenarios

    University essay from KTH/Datavetenskap

    Author : Jacob Näsman; Jonas Sävås; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With ever expanding transport needs and roads becoming increasingly congested, more people than ever before spend significant parts of their daily life stuck in traffic. One common cause of delays and queue formation is drivers attempting to adjust their speed in relation to the vehicle in front. READ MORE

  3. 17. Direct Remote Id based UAS Collision Avoidance System

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Max Bergström; [2022]
    Keywords : UAS; UAV; Drones; DRI; Direct Remote Id; UAS; UAV; Drönare; DRI;

    Abstract : The drone industry is growing and the need for increased autonomy will be required if large fleetof drones will be able to fly without a single pilot per drone. A useful part of automating the flighten-route can be achieved with the upcoming standard of Direct Remote Id (DRI), which signalspositional data for drones and can be used as the perceptive part in a collision avoidance systembetween drones with the advantage of limited weight penalties and minimal financial cost.

  4. 18. Towards Long-Term Autonomous Survivability in Agriculture : A real-time safety watchdog to ensure the survivability of an outdoor plant monitoring robot.

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

    Author : Gurunatraj Parthasarathy; [2022]
    Keywords : Survivability; long-term autonomy; watchdog; agriculture robotics; safety; Överlevnadsförmåga; långsiktig autonomi; watchdog; jordbruksrobotik; säkerhet.;

    Abstract : Autonomous mobile robots in agriculture have brought digital transformations with new automation technologies. Mundane tasks in agricultural fields involve long-term deployment of scheduled assignments done over long working hours. READ MORE

  5. 19. 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

  6. 20. Modelling of Fluid Flow and Contaminant Transport in Fractured Rock : Case Study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Ebba Pegestam; [2022]
    Keywords : Contaminant transport; Discrete Fracture Network; Geology; Geohydrology; Groundwater transport; Fracture; Drinking water; Contamination; Föroreningar; flödestransport; spricknätverk; geologi; geohydrologi; grundvattentransport; sprickor; dricksvatten;

    Abstract : Drinking water contamination is a big concern in Sweden and is commonly traced back to being waste from former manufacturing industrial sites. Pollutants in the topsoil can be remediated by several techniques, such as decontamination or excavation but the toxins already enclosed in the bedrock cannot be treated the same and is harder to track possible contaminant pathways.
