  2. 1. Learning for safety in health care and air traffic control

    Author : Sven Ternov; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Risk management; accident models; complex systems; health care; air traffic control; MTO analysis; DEB-analysis; proactive risk analysis.;

    Abstract : Introduction Risk management in enterprises, organisations and companies has had a long and complicated history. During the eighties, and at least during the beginning of the nineties, the notion concerning risk management was that if an accident happened in an otherwise perfect system it was due to the human operator in some way being the cause of the error.

  4. 2. Dispersion and Transformation of Traffic Exhaust Particles in the Urban Atmosphere

    Author : Matthias Ketzel; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; condensation; deposition; dilution; particle size distribution; plume model; street canyon; traffic pollution; urban environment; turbulence; aerosol dynamics modelling; coagulation; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2004:Ketzel;

    Abstract : Ultrafine particles, their sources and fate in the atmosphere are currently key issues in atmospheric research owing to concern about their effects on human health and global climate. Traffic emissions are a dominating source of ultrafine particles, especially in urban areas. READ MORE

  5. 3. Decentralized Optimal Control for Multiple Autonomous Vehicles in Traffic Scenarios

    Author : Fatemeh Mohseni; Erik Frisk; Björn Olofsson; Jonas Mårtensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : New transport technologies have the potential to create more efficient modes of transport and transforming cities for the better by improving urban productivity and increasing efficiency of its transport system to move consumers, labor, and freight. Traffic accidents, energy consumption, pollution, congestion, and long commuting times are main concerns and new transport technologies with autonomous vehicles have the potential to be part of the solution to these important challenges.

  6. 4. Airborne cognitive systems in search of an appropriate context: Studies of the introduction of new technology in aviation using a cognitive systems engineering approach

    Author : Örjan Goteman; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lufttransportteknik; Air transport technology; Safety; RNAV; Pilot; Automation Modes; HUD; Datalink; Cognition; Automation; Aviation;

    Abstract : Abstract Technology is always designed for an assumed user in an assumed context. In commercial aviation, these design assumptions are clearly spelt out in that both crew and equipment are certificated for a specific operation as stated in the aircraft flight manual. READ MORE

  7. 5. Stereoscopic Label Placement : Reducing Distraction and Ambiguity in Visually Cluttered Displays

    Author : Stephen D. Peterson; Anders Ynnerman; Matthew Cooper; John Wann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Label placement; user interfaces; stereoscopic displays; augmented reality; virtual reality; visual clutter; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : With increasing information density and complexity, computer displays may become visually cluttered, adversely affecting overall usability. Text labels can significantly add to visual clutter in graphical user interfaces, but are generally kept legible through specific label placement algorithms that seek visual separation of labels and other objects in the 2D view plane.
