  2. 1. Cost and financing of the sustainability transition of the Swedish road freight transport sector

    Author : Elmira Parviziomran; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Godstransporter; Hållbar utveckling; Fossila bränslen; Fordon; Kostnader; Finansiering; Batterier; Sustainable development; Electric batteries; Vehicles; Freight and freightage; Fossil fuels; Sustainability transition; Decarbonization; Heavy-duty vehicles; Cost; Financing; Battery; Circular economy; Diesel fuels;

    Abstract : The cost and financing of the road freight sector’s sustainability transition, driven by significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and cost considerations, represent an urgent yet underexplored research focus. This study investigates the costs of fleet replacement with zero-emission powertrains, battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), emphasizing cost variables that have been overlooked in transition research.

  4. 2. Transportation Mission Based Optimization of Heavy Vehicle Fleets including Propulsion Tailoring

    Author : Toheed Ghandriz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optimization; heterogeneous heavy vehicle fleet; optimal energy management; propulsion system tailoring; Automated Driving Systems; electrified propulsion; total cost of ownership; electromobility; transportation mission; fleet sizing;

    Abstract : Over decades freight vehicles were produced for a wide range of operational domains so that vehicle-manufacturers were not concerned much about the actual use-cases of the vehicles. Environmental issues, costumer expectations along with growing demand on freight transport created a competitive environment in providing better transportation solutions. READ MORE

  5. 3. Transportation Mission-Based Optimization of Heavy Combination Road Vehicles and Distributed Propulsion, Including Predictive Energy and Motion Control

    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; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automation; electrified propulsion; long combination vehicles; electromobility; propulsion system tailoring; automated driving systems; optimal control; single-track and two-track vehicle models; predictive energy management and vehicle stability; motion control; longer heavier vehicles; vehicle stability; optimal energy management; total cost of ownership; optimization; transportation mission; heterogeneous heavy vehicle fleet; fleet sizing;

    Abstract : This thesis proposes methodologies to improve heavy vehicle design by reducing the total cost of ownership and by increasing energy efficiency and safety. Environmental issues, consumers expectations and the growing demand for freight transport have created a competitive environment in providing better transportation solutions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cost allocation in some routing problems : a game theoretic approach

    Author : Stefan Engevall; Moshe Dror; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In many situations a set of decision makers have the opportunity to cooperate. In this way they may reduce the total cost for satisfying their objectives. However, the reduction of cost is often not enough to motivate cooperation. The problem of how to divide the total cost (or gain) among the decision makers must also be solved. READ MORE

  7. 5. Decision support tools for dynamic fleet management : applications in airline planning and ambulance logistics

    Author : Tobias Andersson; Andrew J Mason; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In this work, decision support tools for dynamic fleet management problems are developed. The operational management tasks include dispatching, supervising and sometimes reconstructing the vehicle schedule. These tasks are often complex, while the time available to complete them is short.
