1. 16. Creating space for action - Supporting behaviour change by making sustainable transport opportunities available in the world and in the mind

   Författare :Helena Strömberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; behaviour change; sustainable mobility; user-centred design; action space; travel behaviour; everyday transport;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the work presented in this thesis is to contribute to the knowledge of how to create conditions for individuals to change their travel behaviour in a more sustainable direction. Earlier studies point to potential contributions through exploration of the individual’s process of behaviour change, addressing the role of the design of the transport system, as well as investigating the potential effects of enabling structural interventions within the transport system.

4. 18. What is a sustainable everyday life? : Exploring and assessing the sustainability of everyday travel, sharing and ICT

   Författare :Miriam Börjesson Rivera; Greger Henriksson; Mattias Höjer; Josefin Wangel; Jillian Anable; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

   Sammanfattning : In a world where the general trend is unsustainable consumption patterns, can sustainable everyday life be enabled? This thesis sought to expand the knowledge base for policies and measures for sustainability, based on the assumption that consumption can be viewed as the outcome of practices in which people engage in their day-to-day life. The thesis addressed the overall aim by examining the following questions: How can information and communication technology (ICT) practices contribute to sustainable everyday practices? How can sharing practices, ICT-based and other, contribute to sustainable everyday practices? and How can travel practices, ICT-based and other, contribute to sustainable everyday practices?Empirical and conceptual studies revealed that ICT has become a fundamental and integral part of everyday practices and that digitalisation is a tangible material companion with implications for sustainability.

5. 19. The complexity and variability of individuals' activity-travel patterns in Indonesia

   Författare :Dimas Bayu Endrayana Dharmowijoyo; Yusak Susilo; Anders Karlström; Frank Wiltox; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; day-to-day variability; needs-constraints interaction; non-instrumental variables; health condition; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Sammanfattning : Considering an individual’s day-to-day variability of activity-travel patterns will provide a more complete description of how an individual behaves to adapt the changing constraints and resources on different days. Without this day-to-day variability understanding, the individual’s behaviour would not be fully grasped and any suggested policy, planning and development would not completely achieve their desired objectives.

7. 20. Understanding processes and travel behaviour changes connected to electric vehicle adoption

   Författare :Joram H.M. Langbroek; Joel P. Franklin; Yusak Susilo; Jilian Anable; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Sammanfattning : The use of electric vehicles (EVs) has the potential to increase the sustainability of the transport system, especially in case of unchanged or decreased car use, eco-driving and charging during hours of low electricity demand in case of an electricity generation mix with a large share of renewable energy sources. However, EVs still use much energy and EV-use does not solve problems regarding accessibility, social equity, traffic safety and has only a limited beneficial effect on liveability (e. LÄS MER
