  3. 12. 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.

  5. 14. Modelling and laboratory investigations on freight wagon link suspensions with respect to vehicle-track dynamic interaction

    Författare :Per-Anders Jönsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; railway; freight wagon; running gear; link suspension; laboratory test; ; Other engineering mechanics; Övrig teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : The link suspension is the most prevailing suspension system for freight wagons in central and western Europe. The system design is simple and has existed for more than 100 years. However, still its characteristics are not fully understood. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Access management in intermodal freight terminals: The perspective of road haulier operations

    Författare :Stefan Jacobsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; road haulier operations; information exchange; differentiation and segmentation strategies; resource efficiency; intermodal freight terminals; access management;

    Sammanfattning : Given its possibilities of switching freight from road to more sustainable modes such as rail, inland water ways and seaways, intermodal freight transportation depends on environmental and economic variables. At the same time, intermodal freight transportation is essentially complex due to the variety of modes of transport and their corresponding actors. LÄS MER
