  2. 11. On Statistical Methods for Safety Validation of Automated Vehicles

    Author : Daniel Åsljung; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; performance evaluation; extreme value theory; Automotive; validation; automated vehicles; simulation; verification; automated driving systems;

    Abstract : Automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to bring safer and more convenient transport in the future. Consequently, before introducing AVs at scale to the general public, the required levels of safety should be shown with evidence. However, statistical evidence generated by brute force testing using safety drivers in real traffic does not scale well. READ MORE

  4. 12. Highway Traffic State Estimation and Short-term Prediction

    Author : Andreas Allström; Jan Lundgren; Clas Rydergren; Balázs Adam Kulcsár; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Traffic congestion is increasing in almost all large cities, leading to a number of negative effects such as pollution and delays. However, building new roads is not a feasible solution. Instead, the use of the existing road network has to be optimized, together with a shift towards more sustainable transport modes. READ MORE

  5. 13. On the dynamics of self-esteem : Empirical validation of Basic self-esteem and Earning self-esteem

    Author : Maarit Johnson; Liisa Keltikangas-Järvinen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Self-esteem; competence; validation; stability; adjustment; health; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : The present thesis aims at distinguishing between self-esteem as basic self-love (basic self-esteem) and self-esteem as related to competence (earning self-esteem). In previous research these two phenomena have most often been studied under one and the same self-esteem concept. READ MORE

  6. 14. Saving Energy in Construction Machinery using Displacement Control Hydraulics : Concept Realization and Validation

    Author : Kim Heybroek; Jan-Ove Palmberg; Jochen Pohl; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : In the sector of mobile hydraulics, valve controlled systems are predominant. In these systems the load force and speed are adjusted by control valves. In machines where multiple drives are used in parallel at extremely varying loads the energy efficiency of such systems is often compromised over large working regions. READ MORE

  7. 15. Mind over matter : Non-cognitive assessments for the selection of the Swedish voluntary soldier of peace

    Author : Charlotte Bäccman; Kjerstin Almkvist; Erik Wästlund; Lennart Sjöberg; Per-Olov Michel; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; personnel selection; personality; resilience; validation; military; international operations; Psykologi; Psychology;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis was firstly, to investigate if the current selection system mirrors the task of international deployment and voluntariness. Secondly, to investigate if and how non-cognitive assessments of personality and resilience, individual aspects that seem underrepresented in the current selection system, may increment validity to the current selection system.
