2. 1. On Men and Cars : An Ethnographic Study of Gendered, Risky and Dangerous Relations

   Author : Dag Balkmar; Jeff Hearn; Cecilia Åsberg; Victoria Robinson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Gender; masculinity; technology; cars; risk; danger; emotions; car modification; Genus; maskulinitet; teknik; bilar; risk; fara; emotioner; bilstyling; Gender Studies; Genusvetenskap;

   Abstract : It is well known that young men constitute a high-risk group in terms of accidents involving both themselves and others. But comparatively little is known about the roles of gender, masculinity and automobility in reproducing or subverting such particularly risky performances of identity. READ MORE

4. 2. Social and Emotional Characteristics of Speech-based In-Vehicle Information Systems : Impact on Attitude and Driving Behaviour

   Author : Ing-Marie Jonsson; Nils Dahlbäck; Johan Åberg; Olle Eriksson; Håkan Alm; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bilkörning; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

   Abstract : Modern vehicles use advanced information systems in vehicles to provide and control a wide variety of functions and features. Even modest vehicles today are equipped with systems that control diverse functions from air-conditioning to high quality audio/video systems. READ MORE

5. 3. Aggregation of Plug-in Electric Vehicles in Power Systems for Primary Frequency Control

   Author : Seyedmahdi Izadkhast; Mehrdad Ghandhari; Garcia-Gonzalez Pablo; Frias Pablo; Ignacio Egido Cortés; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aggregation; Plug-in Electric Vehicles; Primary Frequency Control; Aggregeren; Plug-in Elektrische Voertuigen; Primaire Reserve; Laddbara Bilar; Elnätet; Primär Frekvensreglering; Agregación; Vehículos Eléctricos Enchufables PEVs ; Control Primario de Frecuencia PFC ; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : The number of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) is likely to increase in the near future and these vehicles will probably be connected to the electric grid most of the day time. PEVs are interesting options to provide a wide variety of services such as primary frequency control (PFC), because they are able to quickly control their active power using electronic power converters.

6. 4. Monitoring winter road friction using floating car data

   Author : Sofia Sollén; Johan Casselgren; Mikael Sjödahl; Hawzheen Karim; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Floating Car Data; Winter Road Maintenance; Tire-to-Road Friction; Road Safety; Vision Zero; Intelligent Transport Systems; Experimental Mechanics; Experimentell mekanik;

   Abstract : More than a million people die every year due to road traffic accidents globally where one in five serious or fatal accidents occurs during severe weather conditions. Sweden is in the lead of Vision Zero, with the aim of zero casualties due to road traffic, and every year new countries and organisations accept the challenge of saving lives. READ MORE

7. 5. Anionic Graft Copolymers with Poly(ethylene oxide) Side-Chains; Synthesis, Solution Properties and Ion Conduction

   Author : Helene Dérand; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dieletric properites; ion conduction; solution properties; aggregation; amphiphilic polymers; poly ethylene oxide ; preparation; grafting; Polymer technology; biopolymers; Polymerteknik;

   Abstract : The research underlaying this thesis involves synthesis and characterization of well-defined anionic graft copolymers carrying poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) side-chains. Two different grafting techniques were used. Backbone polymers were prepared through radical terpolymerization of maleic anhydride, styrene and an additional comonomer. READ MORE
