  1. 1. Towards an open, automated, and reproducible synthetic population of Switzerland : A preparatory, modular pipeline for agent-based mobility simulations

    University essay from KTH/Transport och systemanalys

    Author : David Micallef; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the development of an automated re-synthesising tool, called EasySynth, to generate a Swiss synthetic population and travel diaries from publicly available data. The aim is to overcome the limitations of restricted-access real population data while maintaining control over anonymisation and statistical accuracy. READ MORE

  3. 2. Analysis of Walking and Route-Choice Behavior of Pedestrians inside Public Transfer Stations : A Study on how pedestrians behave in the approaching vicinity of level-change facilities,and how it affects their walking and route-choice behavior

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Daniel Monte Malveira; [2019]
    Keywords : Pedestrian Walking Behavior; Pedestrian Route-Choice Behavior; Approaching Vicinity; Surrounding Environment; T-analyst; VISSIM; microsimulation.;

    Abstract : Pedestrian walking and choice behavior presented was first studied by Fruin in 1971, and since then a lot of research have been carried out in order to understand how humans move and what does make them make choices and obtain certain patterns. In relation to pedestrians, a significant bottleneck inside public stations evaluated by research are the level-change facilities, as Stair Walks and Escalators. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling Effects of Car Sharing on Travel Behaviour

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Isabelle Söder; [2019]
    Keywords : car sharing; station-based car sharing; travel demand modelling; vehicle ownership modelling; four-step model;

    Abstract : Shared modes of transport, including car sharing, have been pointed out as one way of reducing private car use, contributing to an efficient transportation system that fulfills societal and environmental goals.Previous studies show that a share of car sharing users sells or refrains from acquire a new vehicle, when entering car sharing.

  5. 4. Dynamic Link Flow Estimation according to Historical Travel Times

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

    Author : Mahdi Abrishami; [2017]
    Keywords : DNLTT Algorithm; DTA model; Dynamic Network Loading; OD Demand Optimization; Historical link Travel Times;

    Abstract : Vast application of ITS and the availability of numerous on-road detection devices has resulted in variety of alternative data sources to be exploited and used in the field of traffic modelling. In this thesis, historical travel times, as an alternative data source, is employed on the developed method to perform dynamic network loading. READ MORE

  6. 5. Vehicle dynamic simulation and powertrain simulation of a heavy hybrid vehicle with interconnected suspensions

    University essay from KTH/Fordonsdynamik

    Author : Florian Cellière; [2014]
    Keywords : hybrid vehicle; off-highway; low pressure tires; obstacle crossing;

    Abstract : This thesis presents two simulations of a heavy hybrid vehicle, the first part of the thesis is focused on the specifications of the vehicle designed in accordance with the requirements based on the literature study of the soils where the vehicle will travel. The second part presents the study of the vehicle through two simulations. READ MORE
