  1. 6. Job Loss: Consequences and Labor Market Policy

    Author : Jonas Cederlöf; Peter Fredriksson; David Seim; Alexandre Mas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Essay I: This paper takes a novel approach to estimating the effects of involuntary job loss on future earnings, wages and employment. Whereas the previous literature has relied on mass layoffs and plant closures for exogenous variation in displacement, I use the fact that who is laid off is often determined by a seniority rule, specifically the last-in-first-out (LIFO) rule.

  2. 7. Discrimination, Sickness Absence, and Labor Market Policy

    Author : Jonas Lagerström; Per-Anders Edin; Peter Fredriksson; Alan B. Krueger; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Economics; Discrimination; Unobserved heterogeneity; Absenteeism; Social experiment; Active labor market policy; Program evaluation; Nationalekonomi; nationalekonomi; Economics;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of an introduction and four self-contained essays:Essay 1 (with Stefan Eriksson) investigates empirically whether being unemployed per se reduces the probability of getting contacted by a firm. Individuals registered at the Swedish employment offices post their qualifications in a database available to employers over the Internet. READ MORE

  3. 8. Computation of Autonomous Safety Maneuvers Using Segmentation and Optimization

    Author : Pavel Anistratov; Lars Nielsen; Björn Olofsson; Jan Åslund; Jonas Fredriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis studies motion planning for future autonomous vehicles with main focus on passenger cars. By having automatic steering and braking together with information about the environment, such as other participants in the traffic or obstacles, it would be possible to perform autonomous maneuvers while taking limitations of the vehicle and road–tire interaction into account.

  4. 9. Towards Energy Efficient Control of Individual Wheel Drive Articulated Vehicles

    Author : Fredrik Broström; Jonas Fredriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to increase knowledge in the area of articulated vehicles and specifically energy efficient traction control. Eletrical propulsion of vehicles has started to be popular due to its versatility and freedom of design. READ MORE

  5. 10. Exploring force allocation control of over actuated vehicles

    Author : Johannes Edrén; Annika Stensson Trigell; Jenny Jerrelind; Lars Drugge; Jonas Fredriksson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : As the concern for environmental changes and diminishing oil resources grows more and more, the trend of new vehicle concepts now includes full electric or partly electric propulsion systems. The introduction of electric power sources enables more advanced motion control systems due to electrification of the vehicle's actuators, such as individual wheel steering and in wheel hub motors.
