1. Characterization of Aerosols Related to Occupational and Public Environments as Applied to Isocyanates and Road Wear
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to characterize a personal denuder/filter sampler for isocyanate aerosol and to study the emission of airborne particles from the interaction between studded tires and pavements. Both types of aerosols are highly relevant for health studies in public and occupational environments. LÄS MER
2. Aerosol Measurements as Applied for Exposure Characterization
Sammanfattning : It is important to decrease the burden of disease. This is in part achieved by decreasing risks. The aim of this thesis is to provide a methodology for the characterization of aerosol exposure, which may lead to negative health effects. LÄS MER
3. Improved health economic assessments of sustainable transport solutions in urban environments
Sammanfattning : Introduction: Part of the European Strategy to achieve climate neutrality in the transport sector is to increase the proportion of electric vehicles (EVs) and active commuting. Health co-benefits from reduced air pollution and increased active commuting are assumed to follow; however, all dimensions of expected health effects are not quantified nor valued monetarily.

4. Tire Modeling and Friction Estimation
Sammanfattning : New system technologies are continuously improving the performance of vehicles regarding comfort, stability, environmental stresses, and safety. Novel sensors are developed and used together with advanced control algorithms and faster and more accurate actuators to help the driver to maneuver the vehicle in a safer way. LÄS MER
5. Traffic related air pollution with emphasis on particle associated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons : Tire wear and biodiesel exhaust emissions
Sammanfattning : Particulate matter (PM) is regarded as one of the more important components of air pollution causing adverse health effects. A large group of compounds associated with PM are polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) which comprises polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). LÄS MER
