  2. 1. Car crashes with two-wheelers in China: Proposal and assessment of C-NCAP automated emergency braking test scenarios

    Author : Bo Sui; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cluster analysis; China; AEB; PTW; motorcycles; benefit assessment; C-NCAP; future safety systems; two-wheelers; ADAS;

    Abstract : In China, around 15,000 users of two-wheelers (TWs) die on the road every year. Passenger cars are the dominating crash opponent of TWs in road traffic crashes. Understanding the characteristics of car crashes with TWs is essential to enhance cars’ safety performance and improve the safety of TW riders in China. READ MORE

  5. 3. Optimization of empty freight car distribution in scheduled railways

    Author : Martin Joborn; Warren B. Powell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In a railway system, empty freight cars have to be repositioned to enable transportation demand to be fulfllled. These empty car movements are planned and implemented in the empty freight car distribution process. READ MORE

  6. 4. Travel mode choice and sustainability: A psychological investigation of the use of a private car and car sharing services

    Author : Érika Martins Silva Ramos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis discusses the implications of research-based decision-making to develop socially robust technologies, policies, and urban planning in the transport sector, aiming for an inclusive and more sustainable transport system. What are the travel patterns of both users and non-users of car sharing and private cars in European cities? What are the main psychological aspects of and motives for making a travel mode choice? Study I presents a classification of motives considered as relevant when selecting a mode of transport, and it examines the relative importance of driving habits, car attitudes, descriptive norms, and motives for transport mode choices for commuting, shopping trips, child-related trips, and leisure trips.
