  2. 16. On optimal mission planning for conventional and electric heavy duty vehicles

    Author : Ahad Hamednia; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Logistics planning; Transport efficiency; Mission planning; Optimal control; Eco-driving; Model predictive control;

    Abstract : Ever-growing energy consumption and CO2 emissions due to the increase in road transport are major challenges that attract international attention, especially policy makers, logistic service providers and customers considering environmental, ecological and economic issues. Other negative side-effects caused by the growth of the road transport are the extensive economic and social costs because of traffic congestion. READ MORE

    Abstract : Designing in large-scale engineering systems is a difficult cognitive task undertaken by experts. Knowledge of experts continually changes as they are confronted with similar by different problems in designing in such systems. READ MORE

  6. 19. 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

  7. 20. Electrification of Road Transportation - Implications for the Electricity System

    Author : Maria Taljegård; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : It is incumbent upon the transport sector to reduce its CO2 emissions by replacing fossil fuels with low-carbon alternatives. Suggested strategies include electrification of the road transport sector through the use of electric vehicles (EVs) with static charging, electric road systems (ERS), and the use of electricity to produce fuels.
