  2. 6. Semantic Mapping in Warehouses

    Author : Saeed Gholami Shahbandi; Björn Åstrand; Roland Philippsen; Antanas Verikas; Martin Magnusson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automation; Robotics; Mapping; Semantic Maps; Warehouse Automation;

    Abstract : This thesis and appended papers present the process of tacking the problem of environment modeling for autonomous agent. More specifically, the focus of the work has been semantic mapping of warehouses. A semantic map for such purpose is expected to be layout-like and support semantics of both open spaces and infrastructure of the environment. READ MORE

  4. 7. The automation effect: Investigating factors that influence the driver response process in a safety-relevant event during assisted driving and after unsupervised automation

    Author : Linda Pipkorn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driving performance; automated driving; driver behaviour; driver response; test track; take over; response process; automation;

    Abstract : Introduction: Safe vehicle automation can be achieved through a detailed understanding of drivers’ ability to respond to a safety-relevant event after a period of automated driving. For instance, there is a need to understand in which scenarios automation effects are present (e.g. delayed response, degraded driving performance, crashing). READ MORE

  5. 8. Instrumentation and estimation for high temperature control

    Author : Petter Hagqvist; Bengt Lennartson; Anna-Karin Christiansson; Mikael Sjödahl; Högskolan Väst; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Additive Manufacturing; Automation; Emissivity; Emissivity Compensated Spectral Pyrometry; Laser Metal Wire Deposition; Metal Deposition; Pyrometry; Resistance Feedback Control; Thermometry; Varying Emissivity; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Within a variety of industrially relevant high temperature production processes such as welding, heat treatment and metal deposition, the quality of the manufactured component is largely affected by how well parameters can be controlled during processing. These parameters might be, in the case of metal deposition, power input, material feed, or a parameter which is common for all of the aforementioned processes: material temperature. READ MORE

  6. 9. Human-centred automation : with application to the fighter aircraft domain

    Author : Tove Helldin; Göran Falkman; Lars Niklasson; Amy Loutfi; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human-centred automation; fighter aircraft; design guidelines; situation awareness; information fusion; decision support.; Människo-centrerad automation; stridsflyg; designriktlinjer; situationsuppfattning; informationsfusion; beslutsstöd; Computer and Systems Science; Datalogi; Technology;

    Abstract : The working situation of fighter pilots is often very challenging. The pilots are requested to perform their tasks and make decisions in situations characterised by time-pressure, huge amounts of data and high workload, knowing that wrong decisions might result in fatal consequences.

  7. 10. Towards semi-automation of forestry cranes : automated trajectory planning and active vibration damping

    Author : Szabolcs Fodor; Leonid Freidovich; Carlos Vázquez; Anton Shiriaev; Torben Ole Andersen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Forestry; forwarder cranes; semi-automation; slewing actuator; automated trajectory planning; oscillations; inner boom actuator; active vibration damping; frequency estimation; input shaping control technique; H2-optimal control;

    Abstract : Forests represent one of the biggest terrestrial ecosystems of Earth, that can produce important raw renewable materials such as wood with the help of sun, air and water. To efficiently extract these raw materials, the tree harvesting process is highly mechanized in developed countries, meaning that advanced forestry machines are continuously used to fell, to process and to transport the logs and biomass obtained from the forests.
