2. 16. Dynamic Modelling of Transit Operations and Passenger Decisions

   Author : Oded Cats; Haris Koutsopoulos; Tomer Toledo; Wilson Nigel; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Public Transport; Transit Operations; Simulation Model; Traffic Simulation; Route Choice; Dynamic Model; Assignment Model; Control; SRA - Transport; SRA - Transport;

   Abstract : Efficient and reliable public transport systems are fundamental in promoting green growth developments in metropolitan areas. A large range of Advanced Public Transport Systems (APTS) facilitates the design of real-time operations and demand management. READ MORE

4. 17. Modelling of Traffic Performance for Swedish Roads and Motorways

   Author : Per Strömgren; Harilaos Koutsopoulos; Nagui Rouphail; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rural highway; Intersection; Capacity; Critical gap; Flare; Micro simulation; Motorway; Ramp; Weaving; Merging; Queue; Delay; Over-saturated; Time-space; Roadwork zone; variable speed limit; harmonization; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : This thesis consists of five scientific articles oriented towards capacity. Managing capacity constraints with associated delays is a big issue at new design as well as at trimming existing traffic facilities. READ MORE

5. 18. Incorporation of Departure Time Choice in a Mesoscopic Transportation Model for Stockholm

   Author : Ida Kristoffersson; Leonid Engelson; Jan Lundgren; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transport Modelling; Departure Time Choice; Dynamic Traffic Simulation; Time-Varying Congestion Charges; Peak Spreading; Reverse Engineering;

   Abstract : Travel demand management policies such as congestion charges encourage car-users to change among other things route, mode and departure time. Departure time may be especially affected by time-varying charges, since car-users can avoid high peak hour charges by travelling earlier or later, so called peak spreading effects. READ MORE

6. 19. Understanding Mobility and Transport Modal Disparities Using Emerging Data Sources: Modelling Potentials and Limitations

   Author : Yuan Liao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; data mining; geographical information systems; mobility models; big trip data; transport modes; traffic data; social media data;

   Abstract : Transportation presents a major challenge to curb climate change due in part to its ever-increasing travel demand. Better informed policy-making requires up-to-date empirical mobility data to model viable mitigation options for reducing emissions from the transport sector. READ MORE

7. 20. Virtual Reality Technology for Factory Layout Planning

   Author : Liang Gong; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D Laser Scanning; Factory Layout Planning; Virtual Reality; Virtual Factory Modelling;

   Abstract : Factory layout planning (FLP) has been a long-standing area that largely influences the overall productivity of the manufacturing practice. Today’s manufacturing industry faces great challenges owing to an increasing awareness of environmental concerns and the trend-shift from mass production to mass customization. READ MORE
