  1. 1. Car distribution organization : strategic issues in four configurations

    Author : Anders Parment; Björn Axelsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : car industry; distribution; competition; brands; coordination; strategic issues; distribution chains; lean distribution; retail geography; market knowledge; bilmarknaden; distribution; personbilar; marknadsföring; köpbeteende; varumärke; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This study is concerned with car distribution organization, a context characterized by overcapacity, intense competition, and manufacturers heavily focusing on brands. In the study, different distribution solutions are investigated through applying a framework of four strategic issues. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards a sustainable automotive industry : experiences from the development of emission control systems

    Author : David Bauner; Staffan Laestadius; Lee Schipper; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; evolutionary economics; environmental innovation; trajectories; co-evolution; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

    Abstract : From the mid-1970s and on, the contribution to air pollution of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides from gasoline passenger cars in the developed world has been reduced through co-evolution of regulation and commercial introduction of catalytic emission control technology, now part of hundreds of millions of cars, trucks and buses worldwide. This dissertation is a disaggregated study of the global introduction of catalytic emission control technology as a measure to reduce local air pollution. READ MORE

  3. 3. Life cycle assessment of transport systems and transport infrastructure : Investigating methodological approaches and quantifying impacts at project and network levels

    Author : Carolina Liljenström; Anna Björklund; Susanna Toller; Rolf André Bohne; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Strategier för hållbar utveckling; Strategies for sustainable development;

    Abstract : Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector is a key challenge to reach global climate targets and limit global warming to below 2 ºC. The use of life cycle assessment (LCA) may provide knowledge about the environmental impacts of transport systems so that emission reduction measures can be identified. READ MORE

  4. 4. Durability evaluation of PEM fuel cell components

    Author : Live Mølmen; Peter Leisner; Lars Fast; Frode Seland; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Proton exchange membrane fuel cell; bipolar plate; corrosion; interfacial contact resistance; electrocatalysis; Polymermembranbränsleceller; bipolära plattor; korrosion; kontaktresistans; katalys;

    Abstract : Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are used to convert hydrogen and oxygen to electricity, heat, and water. There are no greenhouse gas emissions, given that the hydrogen is produced from renewable sources, such as water electrolysis from wind, hydro or solar energy. READ MORE

  5. 5. Benefits of Coordinating Plug-In Electric Vehicles in Electric Power Systems : Through Market Prices and Use-of-System Network Charges

    Author : Ilan Momber; Lennart Söder; Tomás Gómez San Román; José Villar Collado; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric Vehicles; Power Systems; Optimization; Elektrische Voertuigen; Energiesystemen; Optimalisatie; Elbilarna; Elkraftsystem; Optimering; Vehiculos Electricos; Sistemas de Potencia; Optimización; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik; Economics; Nationalekonomi; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Both electric power systems and the transportation sector are essential constituents to modern life, enhancing social welfare, enabling economic prosperity and ultimately providing well-being to the people. However, to mitigate adverse climatological effects of emitting greenhouse gases, a rigorous de-carbonization of both industries has been set on the political agenda in many parts of the world.
