  1. 41. Active school transportation : Understanding the parental decision-making process

    Författare :Hanna Forsberg; Stina Rutberg; Anna-Karin Lindqvist; Lars Nyberg; Maria Hagströmer; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Active commuting to school; children; health promotion; parents; theory of planned behavior; physical activity; social norms; Physiotherapy; Fysioterapi;

    Sammanfattning : Few children and adolescents reach the recommended levels of daily physical activity. This trend is evident in the countries examined in this thesis: Sweden and Spain. LÄS MER

  3. 42. Fuel-Efficient Heavy-Duty Vehicle Platooning

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

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  4. 43. Radially global neoclassical transport in tokamak pedestals

    Författare :Stefan Buller; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; transport; global effects; collisional transport; fusion; drift-kinetics; plasma physics;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear fusion has the potential to become a sustainable energy sourcein the foreseeable future. The most developed system for fusion powerproduction is the tokamak, which magnetically confines a plasma at highenough temperature for fusion reactions to take place. LÄS MER

  5. 44. Mechanical characterization and modelling of the fracture behaviour of thin brittle coatings on polymer films

    Författare :Marcus Vinícius Tavares da Costa; E. Kristofer Gamstedt; Christoph Kirchlechner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Brittle coating; Polymer substrate; Crack density; Weibull distribution; SEM; Digital image correlation; Finite element modelling; Energy release rate;

    Sammanfattning : Thin brittle coatings with thickness of a few nanometres deposited on flexible polymer substrates form an interesting material combination for food packaging and flexible electronics. This combination may enhance the barrier performance in carton packages. In flexible electronics, coatings could conduct electricity despite their small thickness. LÄS MER

  7. 45. Towards the enhanced applicability of cold mix asphalt: : An experimental study focusing on surface free energies and the breaking and coalescence of bitumen emulsions

    Författare :Abdullah Khan; Nicole Kringos; Per Redelius; Andreas Loizos; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Bitumen; Cold Asphalt Mixtures; Minerals Aggregates; Surface Free Energy; Sorption; Contact Angle; Bitumen Emulsions; Breaking and Coalescence; Emulsifiers; Adhesion Promoters.; Bitumen; kallblandad asfalt; mineraler aggregat; fri ytenergi; sorption; kontaktvinkel; Bitumenemulsioner; brytning och koalescensen; emulgatorer; adhesionsegenskaper; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The environmental, social and economic sustainability of our infrastructure network is clearly of paramount importance to the road-engineering sector as well to society at large. Sustainable road materials and reduced transport of those materials therefore play a significant role. LÄS MER
