  1. 26. Crash-Landing in a Turbulent Transition Market : A Legitimating Activity?

    Author : Sabine Gebert Persson; Mats Forsgren; Desirée Holm; Dharma Deo Sharma; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Business studies; Foreign market entry; Legitimacy; Transition economy; Service firms; Process; Företagsekonomi; Business Studies; företagsekonomi;

    Abstract : With the transition of Central Eastern European countries, a number of foreign companies saw opportunities to enter this virgin ground for business that was evolving. For many firms the entry into these countries became problematic due to the turbulence. READ MORE

  2. 27. Towards a human body model for prediction of vehicle occupant kinematics in omni-directional pre-crash events

    Author : Emma Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pre-Crash Manoeuvres; Shoulder Muscle Control; Active Human Body Model;

    Abstract : As the vehicle fleet becomes more equipped with crash avoidance systems, the proportion of crashes preceded by evasive manoeuvres is expected to increase. In an evasive manoeuvre, occupant position and posture can be influenced by the induced loading. Therefore, there is a need to predict the occupant response from evasive manoeuvres. READ MORE

  3. 28. Physically based constitutive models for crash of composites

    Author : Sergio Costa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Crushing; FEA; friction; damage mechanics; CDM; kinking;

    Abstract : The transportation industry and passenger cars in particular are strong emitters of gases that contribute to the climate crisis. For this reason, the automotive industry investigates opportunities to reduce emissions, such as reducing the weight of the car. READ MORE

  4. 29. Improving the Evaluation Process for Active Safety Functions

    Author : Mikael Ljung Aust; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Situational Control; Advanced Driver Assistance Systems; Safety Benefit Assessment; Driver Behavior Analysis; Active Safety Systems; Crash Causation Analysis; In-depth Crash Investigation;

    Abstract : The general aim of the present thesis was to improve key steps in the procedure for functional, formative evaluation of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Five unresolved theoretical and empirical issues were identified and addressed. READ MORE

  5. 30. Behaviour and material properties of composites for crash modelling

    Author : Thomas Bru; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; carbon fibre composite; non-crimp fabric; crushing; mechanical testing.;

    Abstract : The transport industry must find solutions to reduce its impact on climate change. A promising way to reduce the weight of vehicles and therefore to reduce the CO2 emissions is to introduce components made of lightweight composite materials, in particular laminated carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRPs).
