  2. 2. Delays and Timetabling for Passenger Trains

    Author : Carl-William Palmqvist; Trafik och väg; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; rail; delay; timetable; train; punctuality; Rail transportation;

    Abstract : Travel by train has increased steadily in Sweden the last 30 years. The pace has been about two to three percent per year, and we now have twice as many passengers. With growing awareness of the changing climate, the pace is increasing further. A problem that affects both passengers and businesses in Sweden is train delays. READ MORE

  3. 3. Environmental Impacts of Shared Mobility: Potential, Factors, and Assessments

    Author : Ana Maria Arbelaez Velez; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shared mobility; Environmental impact; sustainable transportation; input and output analysis; Life Cycle Assessment LCA; demand-side solutions;

    Abstract : Environmental impacts from passenger transportation continue to increase globally due to a rise in kilometers traveled and a shift to emission-intensive transportation modes (from public transportation and active modes such as walking and cycling to motorcycle and car ridership). The electrification of the passenger fleet, coupled with low-carbon energy sources, is expected to decrease some of the environmental impacts associated with passenger transportation, including local air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and fuel depletion.

  4. 4. ELM: Environmental Assessment of Fuel Supply Systems for Vehicle Fleets

    Author : Magnus Blinge; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; exergy; biomass; alternative motor fuel; wnvironment; transportation; renewable; energy; Life Cycle Assessment; logistics; emission;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on the idea of applying a logistics approach to fuel supply systems. The complete supply chain from energy raw material to end use in the vehicle is analysed while keeping track of energy conversion efficiency, exergy consumption and emissions to air. READ MORE

  5. 5. Decision Models for the Procurement of Subsidised Air Services

    Author : Alan Kinene; Tobias Andersson Granberg; Valentin Polishchuk; Clas Rydergren; Svein Bråthen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Small communities or remote regions are usually ignored by airlines because they have insufficient passenger demand and the air services to and from these regions are unprofitable. Free market conditions would lead to the lack of air connectivity to and from remote regions, hence transportation authorities intervene by procuring air services to guarantee improved accessibility for these regions.
