    Abstract : Several aspects make today’s transport system non-sustainable: • Production, transport and combustion of fossil fuels lead to global and local environmental problems. • Oil dependency in the transport sector may lead to economical and political instability. READ MORE

  4. 2. Real World Data on Driver Behaviour in Accidents and Incidents: Evaluating data collection and analysis methods for car safety development

    Author : Emma Tivesten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mail survey questionnaire; Driver safety issues; Driver behaviour; Naturalistic driving study; Statistical analysis; Car safety development; Contributing factors; Case study; Incident causation;

    Abstract : Real world data is important for safety development within the road transportation system. For car safety development in particular, methods to collect and analyse real world data on driver behaviour from normal driving, incidents and accidents are needed to address safety in driving.

  5. 3. Methods to quantify and qualify truck driver performance

    Author : Iulian Carpatorea; Slawomir Nowaczyk; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Wahde Mattias; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Driver performance; heavy-duty vehicle; fuel economy; fuel consumption; fuel prediction; truck driver;

    Abstract : Fuel consumption is a major economical component of vehicles, particularly for heavy-duty vehicles. It is dependent on many factors, such as driver and environment, and control over some factors is present, e.g. route, and we can try to optimize others, e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Vehicle Dynamics Control after Impacts in Multiple-Event Accidents

    Author : Derong Yang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Accidents statistics show that multiple-event accidents (MEAs) represent a considerable and increasing proportion of all vehicle traffic accidents. MEAs are characterized by having at least one vehicle subjected to more than one harmful event. MEAs now comprise approximately 25% of all passenger vehicle accidents. READ MORE
