4. Simulation of rail traffic : applications with timetable construction and delay modelling
Abstract : This thesis covers both applications where simulation is used on parts of the Swedish rail networks and running time calculations for future high-speed trains with top speed improvements on existing lines. Calculations are part of a subproject within the Green Train research program (Gröna tåget). READ MORE

5. Comparison of operational limit estimations for FRP laminates – effects of material modelling and stochastic behaviour
Abstract : Transport companies need vehicles with higher efficiency to remain competitive and comply with environmental regulations. Lightweight construction is one way to increase the efficiency of a vehicle. In some vehicles, lightweight construction can reduce the fuel consumption, increase the cargo capacity and reduce the environmental footprint. READ MORE
