Abstract:

A Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) system uses compact, computer-guided vehicles running on dedicated guideways to carry individuals or small groups directly between pairs of stations. PRT vehicles operate on demand, much like conventional taxis. The empty vehicle redistribution (EVR) problem is to decide when and where to move empty PRT vehicles. These decisions are made in real time by an EVR algorithm. A reactive EVR algorithm moves empty vehicles only in response to known requests; in contrast, a proactive EVR algorithm moves empty vehicles in anticipation of future requests. In this thesis, t

Abstract:

This thesis identifies personal sexuality as a significant and crucial site for transformative adult learning. Personal sexuality is shown to be an important adult problematic vital for individual and social transformation. Adult education of the radical/transformative tradition professes to respond to adult learning needs through a process of liberative critical reflection. However, the thesis shows that personal sexuality is an adult learning domain which, in fact, is largely overlooked both in theory and in practice by adult education. The study is cross-disciplinary.

The purpose of this work was to investigate how a last mile-transport vehicle can be constructed around a shoe. The prototype, which is controlled without a handheld controller, was designed to propel an adult forward with the use of an electric driveline. The user can easily stop driving, and instead walk short distances without removing the prototype. Research questions have been answered regarding how the battery and motor can be configured to reach a top speedof 15 km/h and a range of 3 km. In addition, answers were given as to how a user should control the vehicle’s speed in a safe and si

Abstract:

Urban areas are often subject to traffic-induced poor air quality. Variability in vehicle operating behaviours at traffic management infrastructure leads to increased emission rates of pollutant species harmful to health. Where these locations are also sites of pedestrian activity, exposure to pollution is increased. This thesis demonstrates this mechanism through measurement of vehicle dynamics and emissions modelling, with tailpipe emissions found to be at least 20% greater when the vehicle is delayed due to mid-link crossings. As it has no non-combustion sources, black carbon (BC) is a usef

Changes in consumer, lawyer, and doctor behavior as well as changes in the legal and economic environment have diminished the positive impact of the no-fault law.

Electric vehicles can play an important role in a future sustainable road transport system and many Swedish politicians would like to see them implemented faster. This is likely desirable to reach the target of a fossil independent vehicle fleet in Sweden by 2030 and a greenhouse gas neutral Swedish society no later than 2050. However, to reach both these targets, and certainly to support the full scope of sustainability, it is important to consider the whole life-cycle of the vehicles and also the interaction between the transport sector and other sectors.

A mathematical model is used to create a suspension simulation program to find the impact of various parameters of the suspension system on the suspension positioning angle and steering performance.

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>機械工程學研究所<br>100<br>One of the most challenging issues of coming energy and material scarce society involves creating a new transportation system which satisfies the essential need of human transit: door-to-door portable transportation. In order to fulfill that goal in a super-efficient way, there is a need to provide a total solution which should contain new society scenario, new service design, new business model, and new vehicle. The vehicle adopted in the innovative transportation system is a portable lightweight electric vehicle, or PLEV, which is a two-wheel, lightweight f

While it is easy to share information over the Internet, people have begun to worry about protecting confidential information from being intercepted or tampered with during transmission. A common problem with booking taxies over the phone is that a taxi driver may not be able to accurately locate the passenger upon arrival (or vice versa). In addition, it is often difficult to e

The lightweight analysis process of the PRT structure combines topology optimization analysis and finite element model analysis. The design weight of the body structure is set to be less than 200 kg.The bending stiffness and the torsional stiffness of the body structure are design to be greater than 2000 N/mm and 3500 N.m/deg, respectively. In this research, the Tosca topology optimization software is used for the lig

碩士<br>國立高雄應用科技大學<br>機械與精密工程研究所<br>101<br>A novel personal mobile vehicle that has two different driving modes is developed in this study. The vehicle can be transformed from a coaxial two-wheeled car into a three-wheeled car by simply pressing a switch, and vice versa. When the car is driven in two-wheeled mode, PID controllers are utilized for velocity, direction, and balancing control. A three-wheeled car is intrinsic stable, but it is possibly to tip over when suddenly decelerated or accelerated. Thus, a simple control algorithm is proposed to prevent the three-wheeled car from tipping over

Tilting control can tilt the vehicle to desire direction, it will expend more tilting torque when vehicle not achieve appropriate tilting angle. In order to reduce tilting power, angle compensator is proposed in this paper. AutoSim is used to establish the nonlinear full car model with the Stephenson six-bar tilting mechanism. We proposed a tilting control strategy using adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control. An

Crime-related PTSD is a problem of epidemic proportions. Therapeutic and mental health services for trauma related counselling are limited and in some communities non-existent. It is therefor essential to develop preventative programmes aimed at equipping individuals with the skills to avoid possible trauma-inducing situations such as vehicle hijacking.
