  1. 6. Exploring unattended delivery services in e-grocery retail : A consumer-centric perspective on last-mile logistics

    Författare :John Olsson; Förpackningslogistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The retail landscape is transforming at an unprecedented speed and scale, thereby driving an unparalleled growth in last-mile delivery. The already rapidly growing online sales have been further fueled by the coronavirus pandemic. However, the share of online sales varies greatly among different retail sectors. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Energy efficiency improvements in logistics as a means to environmental sustainability: The case of capacity utilisation in road freight transportation

    Författare :Jessica Wehner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Capacity utilisation; household logistics capability; system levels; distribution structure; logistics system; energy efficiency; last-mile fulfilment; overcapacity; system boundaries; road freight transportation;

    Sammanfattning : The energy consumption in logistics, and especially in road freight transportation, is steadily increasing and with that the greenhouse gas emissions which have a negative impact on the environment. In order to improve environmental sustainability of logistics, a change in the actors’ behaviour and policies is needed since the development of technology alone is not sufficient. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Satisfaction with Public Transport Trips

    Författare :Roberto Fernandez Abenoza; Yusak Octavius Susilo; Oded Cats; Sigal Kaplan; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; customer satisfaction; public transport; three-factor theory; accessibility; built-environment; weather; door-to-door trips; firs and last-mile; market segmentation; geographical variations; service quality; safety perceptions; temporal variations; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Sammanfattning : Continuous urban growth, environmental issues, competition for limited space, longer commuting distances as well as the need to promote equity and equality in society are the primary reasons that make the improvement of public transport (PT) services a key policy area in many countries across the globe. Travel satisfaction measures the perceived quality of the PT service and it is an important aspect that operators and PT authorities need to consider when improving the service offered. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Resource allocation for Mobile Edge Clouds

    Författare :Amardeep Mehta; Erik Elmroth; Johan Tordsson; Valeria Cardellini; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mobile Edge Clouds; Edge Fog Computing; IoTs; Distributed Resource Allocation; datalogi; Computer Science; Computer Systems; datorteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Recent advances in Internet technologies have led to the proliferation of new distributed applications in the transportation, healthcare, mining, security, and entertainment sectors. The emerging applications have characteristics such as being bandwidth-hungry, latency-critical, and applications with a user population contained within a limited geographical area, and require high availability, low jitter, and security.

  5. 10. Atomistic simulations of structural and dynamical properties of liquids under geometric constraints

    Författare :Lorenzo Agosta; Alexander Lyubartsev; Marialore Sulpizi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; liquid; contraint; TiO2; surfaces; bio-inorganic; molecular dynamic; ab-initio; tight-binding; DFT; metadynamic; free energy; nanoparticles; water; amino acids; adsorption; mesophases; hexatic; smectic; triply periodic network; Fddd; fysikalisk kemi; Physical Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The statistical-mechanical description of liquids represents a formidable problem in physic due to the absence of the analytical theory of the liquid state. Atomistic simulations represent a unique source of information in this respect and can be implemented in order address macroscopically measurable liquid properties, including its structure and dynamics, based on the information of the interactions between its constituent molecules.
