  2. 6. On Numerical Descriptions of Road Transport Missions

    Author : Pär Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy efficiency; Transport mission description; CO$_2$-emission; full vehicle simulation; road format; energy consumption; operating cycle;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses some issues of current interest in energy consumption prediction through simulation. First, we review the situation for rating, regulation and legislation of CO$_2$-emissions for cars and heavy vehicles. READ MORE

  4. 7. The operating cycle representation of road transport missions

    Author : Luigi Romano; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; operating cycle; transport application; road mission; probability distributions; stochastic processes; energy estimation;

    Abstract : The difficulties that conventionally road vehicles are facing in meeting regulation standards require ad-hoc solutions. Moreover, the impellent shift of paradigm towards full electrification and partial automation is posing great challenges to the automotive industry, which has set a zero-emissions target to be reached within a short time horizon.

  5. 8. On Cooperative Surveillance, Online Trajectory Planning and Observer Based Control

    Author : David A. Anisi; Xiaoming Hu; Randal Beard; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Surveillance Missions; Minimum-Time Surveillance; Unmanned Ground Vehicles; Connectivity Constraints; Combinatorial Optimization; Computational Optimal Control; Receding Horizon Control; Mission Uncertainty; Safety; Task Completion; Adaptive Grid Methods; Missile Guidance; Nonlinear Observer Design; Active Observers; Non--uniformly Observable Systems; Mobile Robotic Systems; Intrinsic Observers; Differential Geometric Methods; Euler-Lagrange Systems; Contraction Analysis.; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori; Applied mathematics; Tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : The main body of this thesis consists of six appended papers. In the  first two, different  cooperative surveillance problems are considered. The second two consider different aspects of the trajectory planning problem, while the last two deal with observer design for mobile robotic and Euler-Lagrange systems respectively. READ MORE

  6. 9. Ambivalent Friendship : Anglican Conflict Handling and Education for Peace in Jerusalem 1920-1948

    Author : Maria Småberg; Historia; []

    Abstract : This thesis concerns a religious actor in the civil society in times of violent conflict. During the British Mandate period in Palestine, Jewish, Muslim and Christian children studied together at Anglican missionary schools. At this time Jerusalem bore all the imprints of ethnic and religious separation and division. READ MORE

  7. 10. The evolution of lunar breccias : U-Pb geochronology of Ca-phosphates and zircon using Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

    Author : Fiona Karen Thiessen; Martin Whitehouse; Alexander Nemchin; Victoria Pease; Barbara Cohen; Stockholms universitet; []
