  1. 1. Challenges with Driverless and Unattended Train Operations

    Author : Emil Jansson; Oskar Fröidh; Nils O.E. Olsson; Ingrid Johansson; Carl-William Palmqvist; Olov Lindfeldt; Ronghui Liu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Railway; Automatic train operation; Driverless trains; Train driver; Roles; Automation challenges; Human senses; Trackside sensors; Transportsystem; Transport Systems; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Demand for transportation continues to increase, for both freight and passenger services. One of the most energy-efficient modes of transportation is rail. One solution to increase the attractiveness of rail transport is to introduce automatic train operation (ATO) with a high grade of automation (GoA). READ MORE

  2. 2. Driverless trucks in the Swedish freight transport system : An analysis of future impacts on the transport system and the emerging innovation system

    Author : Albin Engholm; Anna Pernestål; Ida Kristoffersson; Maria Oscott; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Driverless Trucks; Automated Driving; Total Cost of Ownership; Freight Transport Modeling; Innovation Systems; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : A large-scale introduction of driverless trucks could start taking place during the next decade. While this could bring several economic benefits for freight transport actors and society, it may also change the freight transport system and exacerbate the negative effects of road transport.

  3. 3. Public transport meets smart mobility : Roles and relationships shaping driverless shuttles and MaaS

    Author : Kelsey Oldbury; Karolina Isaksson; Christina Lindkvist; Sara Brorström; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Smart mobility; public transport; governance; planning; Mobility as a Service; driverless shuttles; Urbana och regionala studier; Urban and Regional Studies;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis investigates the development of two aspects of smart mobility, driverless shuttles and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) in relation to public transport. Smart mobility has emerged as a term to describe and label a group of changes unfolding in the transport sector, such as the role out of automated vehicles, electrification, the spread of platforms and new types of shared services,as well as new concepts to integrate multiple forms of mobility, often referred toas Mobility as a Service (or MaaS).

  4. 4. Application of Integrated Vehicle Health Management in Automated Decision-making for Driverless Vehicles

    Author : Xin Tao; Jonas Mårtensson; Tony Lindgren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Driverless vehicles; Integrated vehicle health management; Automated decision-making; Fault diagnosis; Public-private partnership.; Förarlösa fordon; Integrerad fordonshälsohantering; Automatiserat beslutsfattande; Feldiagnostik; Offentligt-privat partnerskap.; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Vehicles are becoming increasingly complex and are prone to faults and failures, which threaten the dependability of vehicles in terms of availability, reliability, safety, and security. When vehicles are detected with certain types of faults and get into alarm situations, human drivers play a vital role in deciding what strategies and actions to take.

  5. 5. Obstacle Detection for Driverless Trucks in Industrial Environments

    Author : Klas Hedenberg; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Roger V. Bostelman; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : With an increased demand on productivity and safety in industry, new issues in terms of automated material handling arise. This results in industries not having a homogenous fleet of trucks and driven and driverless trucks are mixed in a dynamic environment. READ MORE
