Strategic public transport design using autonomous vehicles and other new technologies
(Springer, 2020)
We examine potential improvements to public transport systems induced by the autonomous vehicle technology (AVT). To do so, we study a feeder system that operates on-demand in an idealized local zone, and the design of a ...
Theoretical and practical investigation into the use of a bio-inspired “click” mechanism for the flight motor of a micro air vehicle
(2017-06-01)
Recently, flapping wing micro air vehicles have received great attention with the drive to make smaller and smaller devices. This paper describes a theoretical investigation and subsequent practical implementation of a ...
Estudo de biolubrificantes para aplicação no eixo de transmissão de veículos elétricos
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáLondrinaBrasilEngenharia MecânicaUTFPR, 2022-06-13)
With the term sustainability increasingly strong, the use of electric vehicles tends to increase. The engines used in vehicles that use vehicles for that domestic market will not be able to be used by the electric vehicles, ...
Safety of a railway wheelset - derailment simulation with increasing lateral force
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2009)
The motivation for this research is to make a comparison between dynamic results of a free railway wheelset derailment and safety limits. For this purpose, a numerical simulation of a wheelset derailment submitted to ...
Sistema de control de infracciones y sanciones para vehículos menores “mototaxis”.
(Universidad Ricardo PalmaPE, 2015)
Las entidades públicas como las Municipalidades rurales se encuentran agobiadas por los diferentes desafíos a los cuales deben hacer frente a la ciudadanía. En este caso es la transparencia de información en la administración ...
Effects of asymmetrical damping on a 2 DOF quarter-car model under harmonic excitation
(2017-02-01)
The objective of this work is to study the dynamical behavior of vehicle suspension systems employing asymmetrical viscous damping, with a focus on improving passenger comfort. Previous studies have shown that the use of ...
Solar-powered Hydrogen Refueling Stations: A techno-economic analysis
(2019-01-01)
Fuel cell vehicles are a possible alternative for allowing a replacement of fossil-fuel based transportation. Thereby, this work's methodology proposes a Hydrogen Refueling Station (HRS) design powered by a photovoltaic ...
Optimal fleet size, frequencies and vehicle capacities considering peak and off-peak periods in public transport
(Elsevier, 2017)
The fleet for surface transit in urban areas - number of buses and vehicle size - is usually determined by the characteristics of demand during the peak period, adjusting frequencies for other periods where those characteristics ...
Impact of vehicle automation and electric propulsion on production costs for mobility services worldwide
(Elsevier, 2020)
Automated driving technology along with electric propulsion are widely expected to fundamentally change our transport systems. They may not only allow a more productive use of travel time, but will likely trigger completely ...
