  2. 11. Modeling and Optimal Control of Heavy-Duty Powertrains

    Author : Vaheed Nezhadali; Lars Eriksson; Giorgio Rizzoni; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Powertrain; transmission system; optimal control; modeling for control;

    Abstract : Heavy duty powertrains are complex systems with components from various domains, different response times during transient operations and different efficient operating ranges. To ensure efficient transient operation of a powertrain, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 12. Household adjustment to unemployment

    Author : Sebastian Arslanogullari; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Economics; Nationalekonomi; nationalekonomi; Economics;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of three self-contained studies on labour economics.Is the dramatic increase in the number of social assistance (SA) recipients in Sweden during the 1990s,in part, due to an increase in the propensity to receive SA? I investigate this question in essay I andfind no evidence of a general increase in the mentioned propensity although some behaviouralchanges seem to have occurred. READ MORE

  5. 13. Leaving Home in a Peasant Society. Economic Fluctuations, Household Dynamics and Youth Migration in Southern Sweden, 1829-1866

    Author : Martin Dribe; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Social and economic history; historical demography; economic stress; migration; family strategy; longitudinal analysis; leaving home; event-history analysis; Ekonomisk och social historia;

    Abstract : This study deals with the process of children leaving home and its interactions with the household economy in preindustrial society. A theoretical model of leaving home is outlined and then analyzed multivariately, using a longitudinal micro-level dataset for a sample of parishes in western Scania, Sweden, for the period 1829-1866.

  6. 14. Analysis of the Unsteady Flow Field of a Passenger Vehicle

    Author : Lennert Sterken; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind tunnel; Wake; CFD; Pressure measurements; Extensions; Yaw response; External aerodynamics; Aerodynamic forces;

    Abstract : Political legislation and consumer requirements for a sustainable society require that vehicle manufacturers focus on reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions. Areduction in the overall energy consumption can be directly linked to a decrease of the driving resistance, where the aerodynamic drag significantly contributes at velocities above 70km/h.

    Abstract : Increasing energy consumption and concern for carbon emissions has boosted the demand for renewable energy production. The focus on renewable energy has gained much attention in wind, solar, hydro and wave power generations. Wave power has great potential due to its high energy density but there are challenges as well. READ MORE
