  2. 1. On Optimal Mission Planning for Vehicles over Long-distance Trips

    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; Stochastic dynamic programming; Optimal control; Logistics planning; Thermal and charging management; Model predictive control; Mission planning;

    Abstract : This thesis proposes a mission planner for vehicles over long-distance trips, for finding the optimal trade-off between trip time, energy efficiency, and driver comfort, subject to road information, traffic situations, and weather conditions. The mission planner consists of three components, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 2. Fuel-Efficient Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning

    Author : Assad Alam; Karl H. Johansson; Roberto Horowitz; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Platooning; Heavy-Duty Vehicle; Optimal Control; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The freight transport industry faces big challenges as the demand for transport and fuel prices are steadily increasing, whereas the environmental impact needs to be significantly reduced. Heavy-duty vehicle (HDV) platooning is a promising technology for a sustainable transportation system. READ MORE

  5. 3. Mechanical processing for improved products made from Swedish hardwood

    Author : Jimmy Johansson; Dick Sandberg; František Hapla; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; capillarity; capillary transport; wood products; customer requirements; ecoeffectiveness; ; sawing pattern; star-sawing; the PrimWood Method; timber products; volume yield; water transport; Wood fibre and forest products; Träfiber- och virkeslära;

    Abstract : Swedish hardwood is today used in the energy, pulp and mechanical hardwood industries. Only very small volumes of Swedish hardwood are, however, consumed by the mechanical industry that normally pays the highest timber price. READ MORE

  6. 4. Sparse Modeling of Harmonic Signals

    Author : Filip Elvander; Statistical Signal Processing Group; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multi-pitch estimation; sparse modeling; convex optimisation; inharmonicity; sparse recursive least squares; adaptive signal processing; optimal transport distance;

    Abstract : This thesis considers sparse modeling and estimation of multi-pitch signals, i.e., signals whose frequency content can be described by superpositions of harmonic, or close-to-harmonic, structures, characterized by a set of fundamental frequencies. READ MORE

  7. 5. Optimisation of Off-Road Transport Missions

    Author : Jörgen Albrektsson; Jan Åslund; Lars Eriksson; Nikolce Murgovski; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Mines, construction sites, road construction and quarries are examples of applications where construction equipment are used. In a production chain consisting of several construction machines working together, the work needs to be optimised and coordinated to achieve an environmental friendly, energy efficient and productive production.
