21. Towards sustainable personal mobility with electric cars and buses
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to explore if, and then how, electric cars and buses can contribute to sustainable personal mobility. Electric vehicles have increasingly been seen as a potential sustainable solution for the transport sector due to their high energy efficiency, close to zero emissions in the use phase, and the possibility to be powered by electricity from renewable resources.

22. Valuation and pricing of traffic safety
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of six essays covering the topic of valuation and pricing of accidents. In the first essay a theory of the external marginal cost of accidents is presented. The external cost is dependent on the value of statistical life, the proportion internal cost and the so called risk elasticity, i.e. LÄS MER
23. A Holistic Safety Benefit Assessment Framework for Heavy Goods Vehicles
Sammanfattning : In 2019, more than one million crashes occurred on European roads, resulting in almost 23,000 traffic fatalities. Although heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) were only involved in 4.4% of these crashes, their proportion in crashes with fatal outcomes was almost three times larger. LÄS MER
24. Topics in projective algebraic optimization
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores optimization challenges within algebraic statistics, employing both topological and geometrical methodologies to derive new insights. The main focus is the optimization degree of nearest point and Gaussian maximum likelihood estimation problems with algebraic constraints. LÄS MER
25. Methods for Analysis of Naturalistic Driving Data in Driver Behavior Research
Sammanfattning : In the last several years, the focus of traffic safety research—especially when performed in association with the automotive industry—has shifted from preventing injury during a crash to avoiding the crash altogether or mitigating its effects. Pre-crash safety measures include intelligent safety systems (e.g. LÄS MER
