  1. 1. The GMOC Model : Supporting Development of Systems for Human Control

    Författare :Simon Tschirner; Bengt Sandblad; Anders Jansson; Sebastiaan Meijer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human-Computer Interaction; User-Centered Design; Human Control; Train Traffic Control; Usability; System Development; Human Work; Railway Traffic; Rail Human Factors; Mental Models; Situation Awareness; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot människa-datorinteraktion; Computer Science with specialization in Human-Computer Interaction;

    Sammanfattning : Train traffic control is a complex task in a dynamic environment. Different actors have to cooperate to meet strong requirements regarding safety, punctuality, capacity utilization, energy consumption, and more. The GMOC model has been developed and utilized in a number of studies in several different areas. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In most vehicle domains within the transportation sector, traffic is increasing and vehicles are becoming more technologically advanced. In addition to this, drivers are faced with conflicting goals, such as punctuality, maintaining safety, minimizing fuel consumption, ensuring passenger comfort, etc. LÄS MER

  3. 3. A study of the rail degradation process to predict rail breaks

    Författare :Saurabh Kumar; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : Rail infrastructure is a large and costly investment, and has a long life. To realize the benefits from this investment, effective maintenance is required. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Factors Influencing the Choice between Road and Multimodal Transportation

    Författare :Martin Heljedal; Fredrik Persson; Catrin Lammgård; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Non-sustainable transportation is a great part of the stress that human activities put on the environment. Road transportation constituted 74% of the total inland tonne-kilometres in the EU during 2009, to be compared to rail transportation at 15%. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Driverless trucks in the Swedish freight transport system : An analysis of future impacts on the transport system and the emerging innovation system

    Författare :Albin Engholm; Anna Pernestål; Ida Kristoffersson; Maria Oscott; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Driverless Trucks; Automated Driving; Total Cost of Ownership; Freight Transport Modeling; Innovation Systems; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : A large-scale introduction of driverless trucks could start taking place during the next decade. While this could bring several economic benefits for freight transport actors and society, it may also change the freight transport system and exacerbate the negative effects of road transport.
