  2. 1. Coordination and Analysis of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles in Freeway On-Ramp Merging Areas

    Author : Jie Zhu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Operational efficiency; Safety impacts; Freeway on-ramp merging; Microscopic traffic simulation; Connected and autonomous vehicles; Coordinative merging strategy;

    Abstract : Freeway on-ramps are typical bottlenecks in the freeway network, where the merging maneuvers of ramp vehicles impose frequent disturbances on the traffic flow and cause negative impacts on traffic safety and efficiency. The emerging Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) hold the potential for regulating the behaviors of each individual vehicle and are expected to substantially improve the traffic operation at freeway on-ramps.

  4. 2. Optimization-based coordination strategies for connected and autonomous vehicles

    Author : Robert Hult; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model Predictive Control; Optimization; Optimal Control; Connected Automated Vehicles; Intersection Coordination;

    Abstract : Automated vehicles (AV) are expected to reach the consumer market within the next decade. Once AVs become ubiquitous, they could resolve difficult traffic situations through communication-based cooperation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Exploring Road Traffic Interactions Between Highly Automated Vehicles and Vulnerable Road Users

    Author : Victor Fabricius; Pontus Wärnestål; Jonas Andersson; Barry Brown; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Automated driving system; Vulnerable road user; Traffic interaction; User Experience;

    Abstract : Understandings of road traffic interactions are largely based on human-human interactions. However, the development of vehicles controlled by highly auto- mated driving systems (ADS) would introduce a radically novel type of road user. READ MORE

  6. 4. Automation of underwater operations on wave energy converters using remotely operated vehicles

    Author : Flore Remouit; Jens Engström; Antonio Pascoal; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Remotely Operated Vehicles; wave energy; WEC deployment; cable connection; optical positioning system; autonomous underwater docking;

    Abstract : In the last fifteen years, the Division of Electricity at Uppsala University has been developing a wave energy converter (WEC) concept. The concept is based on a point-absorbing buoy with a directly driven linear generator placed on the seabed. READ MORE

  7. 5. Are We There Yet? Combining qualitative and quantitative methods to study the introduction of CAVs in Sweden, and potential travel demand effects

    Author : Ella Rebalski; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; travel demand; Connected and Autonomous Vehicle; drivers; force field analysis; Value of Travel Time; sociotechnical transition; DPSIR; pressures;

    Abstract : By law, Sweden must reach net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) by 2045. Domestic transportation is one sector in which GHG emissions can be reduced substantially. READ MORE
