    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles is a rapidly expanding field, and promise to play an important role in society. In more isolated environments, vehicle automation can bring significant efficiency and production benefits and it eliminates repetitive jobs that can lead to inattention and accidents. READ MORE

  6. 4. Deactivation of emission control catalysts for heavy-duty vehicles : Impact of biofuel and lube oil-derived contaminants

    Author : Sandra Dahlin; Lars Pettersson; Isabella Nova; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NH3-SCR; Cu-SSZ-13; V2O5-WO3 TiO2; catalyst deactivation; diesel oxidation catalyst; sulfur; phosphorus; biodiesel; heavy-duty; emission control; regeneration; alkali metals; NH3-SCR; Cu-SSZ-13; V2O5-WO3 TiO2; katalysatordeaktivering; dieseloxidationskatalysator; svavel; fosfor; biodiesel; tunga dieselmotorer; avgasrening; regenerering; alkalimetaller; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Catalytic emission control is used to reduce the negative impact of pollutants from diesel exhausts on our health and on the environment. For a heavy-duty truck, such a system consists of a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), a diesel particulate filter (DPF), a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalyst, and an ammonia slip catalyst (ASC).

  7. 5. Transient vibrations from dry clutch operation in heavy-duty truck powertrains : Modelling, simulation and validation

    Author : Jakob Sjöstrand; Leif Kari; Ines Lopez Arteaga; Per Erik Austrell; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dry clutch system; Engagement; Disengagement; Dry-friction; LuGre friction model; Heavy-truck powertrain; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Abstract : For internal combustion engines used in heavy-duty vehicles, increased engine efficiency and consequently reduced CO2 emissions can be obtained if the engine speed can be kept within an optimal speed range. This requires swift and frequent gear shifts where the dry friction clutch is utilized. READ MORE
