2. 1. Moments on a City Bus : Micro-sociology of Non-verbal Interaction in Urban Bus-riding

   Author : Magdalena Vieira; Sandra Torres; Elin Thunman; Philip Lalander; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; public places; mundane; non-verbal interaction; interaction moments; gestures; homogeneous heterogeneous interaction; micro-sociology; Goffman; bus-riding; riders; time; space; bodies; interaction norms; structured participant observation; fieldnotes; territories; involvement; rituals; Sociologi; Sociology;

   Abstract : This thesis seeks to contribute to research on social interaction in public (and semi-public) places in general, and research on non-verbal mundane interaction in these places in particular. By paying empirical attention to the non-verbal interaction that takes place in the context of riding a city bus – which is a contained and time-limited form of social activity – this thesis explores the theoretically rich source of information about mundane interaction that this specific social activity offers.

4. 2. Bus rapid transit (BRT) and transitoriented development (TOD) : How to transform and adjust the Swedish cities for attractive bus systems like BRT? What demands BRT?

   Author : Todor Stojanovski; Lars-Göran Mattsson; Karl Kottenhoff; Haris Koutsopoulos; Tom Rye; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bus rapid transit BRT ; transit-oriented development TOD ; bus transportation; neighborhood; urban form; urban morphology; urbanization; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : Bus rapid transit (BRT) is an innovative bus system with sophisticated vehicles and inflexible busways integrated in the cities, high capacity and high quality, high speed and frequency, distinctive image and comfort. Many in Sweden believe that is impossible to introduce BRT, even though the Swedish towns and cities can benefit from the image, speed and frequency that BRT symbolizes. READ MORE

5. 3. Surviving a major bus crash : experiences from the crash and five years after

   Author : Isabelle Doohan; Britt-Inger Saveman; Ulf Björnstig; Per-Olof Michel; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : bus crash; major road traffic crash; survivors; injuries; consequences; experiences; recovery; social support; emergency care; compassionate care; long-term recovery;

   Abstract : Background Major road traffic crashes (RTCs) can have a significant impact on the survivors, their family, and their friends, as well as on emergency personnel, volunteers, and others involved. However, survivors’ perspectives are rare or missing in research on major RTCs in Sweden. READ MORE

6. 4. Optimal Control of Electric Bus Lines

   Author : Rémi Lacombe; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Eco-driving; Electric buses; Bus bunching; Nonlinear programming; Optimal control; Model predictive control;

   Abstract : Bus lines are inherently unstable systems, where any delay tends to be further amplified by the accrued passenger loads encountered at stops downstream. This self-reinforcing mechanism, when combined with the multiple sources of disturbances of an urban environment, can lead to the problem of bus bunching. READ MORE

7. 5. Towards electrified public bus transport : The case of Stockholm

   Author : Maria Xylia; Semida Silveira; Maria Börjesson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electric bus; charging infrastructure; optimisation; public transport; fossil-free; transport planning; Sweden; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis addresses the challenge of road transport electrification using a systems approach for the particular context of Stockholm’s public transport system. The objective is to identify the benefits of large-scale bus electrification on energy efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the cost and planning considerations required for achieving such a shift.
