  1. 1. Online State Estimation in Electrified Vehicles Linked to Vehicle Dynamics

    Author : Anton Albinsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electric vehicles; state estimation; vehicle dynamics; parameter estimation; tyre-road friction estimation; active safety;

    Abstract : Electric vehicles have the potential to significantly reduce energy consumption and emissions for personal and commercial road transport and number of electric vehicles is likely to increase in the future due to stricter emission legislations. In order to accelerate market penetration, the competiveness of electric vehicles should increase in comparison to conventional vehicles. READ MORE

  2. 2. Estimation of Speaker Age : Effects of Speech Properties and Speech Material

    Author : Sara Skoog Waller; Mårten Eriksson; Billy Jansson; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Age estimation; Voice perception; Speech properties; Speech rate; Vocal disguise; Age disguise; Accuracy; Confidence; Spontaneous speech;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to investigate factors related to accuracy in estimation of speaker age and the role of certain speech properties in perception and manipulation of speaker age, as well as their interaction with the speech material that the age estimates were based on. This thesis consists of three studies. READ MORE

  3. 3. Distributed Road Grade Estimation for Heavy Duty Vehicles

    Author : Per Sahlholm; Karl Henrik Johansson; Emilio Frazzoli; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automotive; estimation; distributed systems; automatic control; heavy duty vehicles; road grade; road maps; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

    Abstract : An increasing need for goods and passenger transportation drives continued worldwide growth in traffic. As traffic increases environmental concerns, traffic safety, and cost efficiency become ever more important. Advancements in microelectronics open the possibility to address these issues through new advanced driver assistance systems. READ MORE

  4. 4. Computer-aided Computation of Abelian integrals and Robust Normal Forms

    Author : Tomas Johnson; Warwick Tucker; Lars-Erik Persson; John H. Hubbard; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ordinary differential equations; parameter estimation; planar Hamiltonian systems; bifurcation theory; Abelian integrals; limit cycles; normal forms; hyperbolic fixed points; numerical integration; invariant manifolds; interval analysis. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 34A60; 34C07; 34C20; 37D10; 37G15; 37M20; 37M99; 65G20; 65L09; 65L70.; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : This PhD thesis consists of a summary and seven papers, where various applications of auto-validated computations are studied. In the first paper we describe a rigorous method to determine unknown parameters in a system of ordinary differential equations from measured data with known bounds on the noise of the measurements.
