    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Pawel Kupsc; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Long haulage trucks are a key part of today’s goods trans-port networks. To reduce fuel costs and emissions from trucks, novel methods of regulating their speed optimally based on road slope data and other vehicles’ behavior are being developed. READ MORE

  5. 4. A supervised learning approach to estimate the drivers impact on fuel consumption : A heavy-duty vehicle case study

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Georg Zetterberg Wallin; Matthieu Crétier; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this Master thesis is to provide a statistical analysis of the factors inuencing the fuel consumption, with a focus on the separation of the drivers' performance. The study is focused on the long haulage trucks, which correspond to the application where the fuel consumption becomes of primary interest from the economical point of view. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modeling of a vehicular LNG tank with regard to real time implementation

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Christian Wessel; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The usage of natural gas (NG) as an alternative vehicle fuel is becoming more and more common, due to a factor of approximately 600 between the liquid and vapour phase density, the storage of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in cryogenic containers is desirable to enable for NG propelled long haulage vehicles. Due to the novelty of the LNG vehicular market, little research in the field “modeling of LNG vehicular tanks” exists. READ MORE
