Sustainable urban freight management is a growing challenge for local authorities due to
social pressures and increasingly more stringent environmental protection requirements …

There is a need to reduce fuel consumption, and thereby reduce CO2-emissions in all parts
of the transport sector. It is also well known that aerodynamic resistance affects the fuel …

New insights into how different ground simulation methods affect road vehicle aerodynamics
are presented. Experiments are conducted on a 1/24th-scale model, representative of a …

Considerable amounts of the everyday goods transports are done using light trucks. In the
last ten years (2005-2015), the number of light trucks has increased by 33% in Sweden. The …

Road transportation by trucks is the major part of the goods transportations system in the
European Union (EU), and there is a need for increased fuel efficiency. While truck …

In recent years, there has been an overall reduction in green-house emissions in the
European Union (EU); however, that is not the case for the transport industry where road …

The aerodynamic improvement and efficiency of regular goods transportation trucks have
