  1. 1. Map Based Sensor Fusion for Lane Boundary Estimation on ADAS

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

    Author : Puya Faghi; [2023]
    Keywords : Lane estimation; Lane detection; Map-matching; Sensor fusion; Smart camera; Vehicle Radar; Intelligent vehicle systems; Körfältsestimering; Körfältsdetektering; Kartmatchning; Sensorfusion; Smart Kamera; Radar system; Fordonsradar; Intelligenta fordonssystem;

    Abstract : A vehicles ability to detect and estimate its surroundings is important for ensuring the safety of the vehicle and passengers regardless of the level of vehicle autonomy. With an improved road and lane estimation, advanced driver-assistance systems will be able to provide earlier and more accurate warnings and actions to prevent a possible accident. READ MORE

  3. 2. The effect of management strategies on carbon uptake of highway ancillary areas in Northern Germany

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Maura Karmann; [2023]
    Keywords : InVEST- model; Highway ancillary areas; carbon pool estimations; management factors; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Carbon storage capacity estimations of terrestrial vegetation are necessary to understand the limit of possible carbon emissions. General approximations, of a landscapes carbon pool capacity, can be performed using the InVEST-model. READ MORE

  4. 3. Safe autonomous lane-switching controller using high-order control barrier and Lyapunov functions

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

    Author : Arno Frauenfelder; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With the rising interest in autonomous vehicles due to developments with electric cars and computer vision, controllers that provide safe, collision free manoeuvres are crucial for the advancement of this technology. In this thesis, a controller for autonomous vehicles for safe, collision-free lane switching on highways including adaptive cruise control is proposed. READ MORE

  5. 4. Testing macroscopic traffic evacuation models for wildland-urban interface fires

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Adam Ardinge; [2021]
    Keywords : WUI-NITY; WUI; V V; traffic evacuation; WUI fire evacuation; simulation model; verification testing; validation testing; Kincade; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the verification and validation testing performed on the evacuation simulation platform WUI-NITY which has the aim of being a simulation tool for the integration of different layers, such as pedestrian, traffic and wildfire with evolving dynamic interactions. The present thesis aims at applying a set of verification tests and validation testing suitable for WUI-NITY with a focus on the traffic component. READ MORE

  6. 5. An emprical analysis of the effect of emergency lights on the speed of road assistance vehicles on highways in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Leonard Hökby; [2021]
