1. Towards sustainable urban transportation : Test, demonstration and development of fuel cell and hybrid-electric buses
Sammanfattning : Several aspects make today’s transport system non-sustainable: • Production, transport and combustion of fossil fuels lead to global and local environmental problems. • Oil dependency in the transport sector may lead to economical and political instability. LÄS MER
2. Towards enhanced mechanical braking systems for trains. Thermomechanical capacity of wheel treads at stop braking
Sammanfattning : Modern trains are equipped with different braking systems, between which the braking effort can be distributed. Among these, tread braking is still the most common system for friction braking. Tread brake systems are cheap and robust. LÄS MER
3. An ALARP Stop-Test Decision for the Worst-Case Timing Characteristics of Safety-Critical Systems
Sammanfattning : Safety-critical systems are those in which failure can lead to loss of people’s lives, or catastrophic damage to the environment. Timeliness is an important requirement in safety-critical systems, which relates to the notion of response time, i.e., the time a system takes to respond to stimuli from the environment. LÄS MER
4. Drug policing of youth : examining pre- and post-stop conditions and outcomes
Sammanfattning : Given the strong focus on minor drug offenses in Swedish drug control policy and the risk of disparate drug enforcement that may follow from such policies, this thesis explores drug enforcement and the use of coercive measures (enforced drug tests and body searches) towards youths aged 15-20 years. The first study focuses on the circumstances of the detection of minor drug offenses, the grounds for suspicion and use of coercive measures. LÄS MER
5. Thermal Capacity of Railway Wheels - Temperatures, residual stresses and fatigue damage with special focus on metro applications
Sammanfattning : Tread (block) braking is still one of the most common braking systems on railway vehicles.The action is carried out by pressing brake blocks against the tread of a wheel, which is also inrolling contact with the rail. LÄS MER
