11. Utvärderingsinstrument för uppföljning av system- och säkerhetseffekter av trafiksäkerhetsåtgärder i tätort : tillämpade i Storuman
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this licentiate thesis has been to describe a range of traffic safety measures and their effect on safety. Another objective has been to study when and where different evaluation tools are useful for collecting data on traffic safety in urban areas. System effects as well as point effects are discussed.

12. Predictive models for accidents on urban links - A focus on vulnerable road users
Sammanfattning : Much of earlier work on predictive models for accidents has been focused on rural traffic or urban intersections. This work has aimed at identifying and investigating possible improvements to predictive models for accidents on urban links. A special focus has been on the accidents of vulnerable road users.

13. The Pneumatic Hybrid Vehicle - A New Concept for Fuel Consumption Reduction
Sammanfattning : Urban traffic involves frequent acceleration and deceleration. During deceleration, the energy previously used to accelerate the vehicle is mainly wasted on heat generated by the friction brakes. If this energy that is wasted in traditional internal combustion engines (ICE) could be saved, the fuel economy would improve. LÄS MER
14. Safety and mobility of children crossing streets as pedestrians and bicyclists
Sammanfattning : The content of this thesis is safety and mobility of children crossing streets as pedestrians and bicyclists. The risk of fatal injury is higher for pedestrians and bicyclists, especially for children and elderly, than for other road users except motorcyclists. LÄS MER
15. Muscle Responses in Dynamic Events. Volunteer experiments and numerical modelling for the advancement of human body models for vehicle safety assessment
Sammanfattning : Fatalities and injuries to car occupants in motor vehicle crashes continue to be aserious global socio-economic issue. Advanced safety systems that provide improvedoccupant protection and crash mitigation have the potential to reduce this burden. LÄS MER
