An Interactive Visualization Tool for Collaborative Construction Logistics Planning—Creating a Sustainable Project Vicinity
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Sustainability. - : MDPI. - 2071-1050. ; 14:24
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The intensity of urban development is presently high, creating a construction boom. The number of transports per project is a major consideration in urban goods transport and emissions from a project. Presently, the stakeholders take part in a “blame game” in assigning fault for the emissions from construction transport and the disturbances to society in the vicinity of construction sites. Incorporation of logistics into urban planning requires an increased understanding of the interaction between construction transport flows and urban land use, and the inclusion of different stakeholders. The purpose of the study is to support collaborative planning of construction transport in urban planning, and specifically to explore how a planning tool based on interactive visualization could be designed. An action research process has generated two prototypes of an interactive visualization tool for collaborative planning of construction transport. The prototype facilitates a “shared deliberation space” by identifying alternatives and assessing predicted consequences, which supports a collaborative urban planning process. Based on the research conducted, we claim that the responsibility of construction transport planning should be taken by the municipality, i.e., the urban planning and traffic planning functions. © 2022 by the authors.

- 2022
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Störningsfri stad har kombinerat kunskaper inom Trafikplanering, Visualisering, Bygglogistik, Sensorer och Offentlig planering och styrning. Projektet har letts av Linköpings universitet, Institutionen för Teknik och Naturvetenskap och finansierats av Vinnova, IHS. Projektet har löpt mellan slutet av 2018 och 2021 ut. Projektdeltagare har varit VTI, RISE, Norrköpings kommun, Linköpings kommun, Stockholm stad, Uppsala kommun, Trafikverket Projekt Ostlänken, LE Lundbergs Fastigheter, Wiklunds Åkeri, Wellsec, SanktKors, Byggföretagen, Telenor och Logistikia.Projektet har utvecklat en verktygsprototyp som stöttar kollaborativ planering av byggtrafik och stadsplanering genom att visualisera pågående byggprojekts sammanlagda mängd transporter och var i staden (i form av en kartvy) det uppstår störningar i form av förseningar pga dessa. Verktyget bygger på en MATSim trafikmodell (i nuläget Norrköping) inkluderande både persontransporter (modellerat baserat på mobilnätsdata) och byggtrafik (modellerat baserat på data från bygglogistiklösningar). Med hjälp av verktyget kan olika scenarier för att minska störningarna av byggtransporter testas. För att stötta användandet av verktyget har en kollaborativ planeringsprocess som visar på hur de olika aktörerna involverade i planeringen av byggtransporter och stadsutveckling behöver interagera med varandra utvecklats. Projektet också deltagit i utvecklingen av en sensorbox (partiklar, luftfuktighet, temperatur och ljud) samt slangmätningsmetodik för att öka kunskapen om byggtransporter. Baserat på de resultat som projektet har behovsägarna har påbörjat arbeten med att bättre hantera de störningar som uppstår pga byggprojekt i staden.

Är barn en del av det planerande kollektivet : En studie om inkludering av barn i planering av kollektivtrafik
- 2023
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Syftet i denna rapport är att undersöka om och hur barn involveras i den regionala kollektivtrafikplaneringen. De vägledande frågorna för rapporten är följande:Hur har barnkonventionen påverkat arbetet i de regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna?På vilka sätt och i vilka sammanhang inkluderas barn i kollektivtrafikplaneringen?Vilka hinder och möjligheter finns för att involvera barn i kollektivtrafikplaneringen?Projektet inleddes med en litteraturstudie för att kartlägga det rådande internationella och nationella kunskapsläget i frågan om barn i kollektivtrafikplanering och, eftersom studier på specifikt det ämnet var ytterligt få, i samhällsplanering i stort. I ett andra skede av projektet genomfördes dels e-postenkäter och studier av 21 trafikförsörjningsprogram och andra relevanta dokument, dels sju semi-strukturerade intervjuer med tjänstepersoner på sex olika regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheter.Sammanfattningsvis illustrerar projektet att barnkonventionens implementering i den svenska lagstiftningen inte inneburit större förändringar hos svenska regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheter i det korta perspektiv som vi studerat. Detta på grund av flertalet orsaker: bristande stöd och vägledning från nationella myndigheter, politiska mål för kollektivtrafiken som inte inkluderar barn, barnperspektiv i planeringen som inte utvecklas till att också inkludera barnen.Projektet har bidragit med ny kunskap om barns mobilitet i relation till kollektivtrafiken.En viktig slutsats är att skoltrafik och linjelagd trafik är tätt sammanbundna ur ett barnsmobilitetsperspektiv och att planeringen av dessa därför också bör vara sammankoppladeför att ett barnrättsperspektiv i kollektivtrafiken på allvar ska kunna uppnås. Detta kräverkommunal och regional samordning, inte bara av trafikplaneringen, utan ocksåsamhällsplanering, så att barnens målpunkter kan vara försörjda av kollektivtrafik,särskild eller linjelagd.

Neurocognitive processes underlying heuristic and normative probability judgments
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Cognition. - : ELSEVIER. - 0010-0277 .- 1873-7838. ; 196, s. 1-7
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Judging two events in combination (A&B) as more probable than one of the events (A) is known as a conjunction fallacy. According to dual-process explanations of human judgment and decision making, the fallacy is due to the application of a heuristic, associative cognitive process. Avoiding the fallacy has been suggested to require the recruitment of a separate process that can apply normative rules. We investigated these assumptions using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during conjunction tasks. Judgments, whether correct or not, engaged a network of brain regions identical to that engaged during similarity judgments. Avoidance of the conjunction fallacy additionally, and uniquely, involved a fronto-parietal network previously linked to supervisory, analytic control processes. The results lend credibility to the idea that incorrect probability judgments are the result of a representativeness heuristic that requires additional neurocognitive resources to avoid.

Decreased COPD prevalence in Sweden after decades of decrease in smoking
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Respiratory Research. - : Springer Nature. - 1465-9921 .- 1465-993X. ; 21
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BackgroundCOPD has increased in prevalence worldwide over several decades until the first decade after the millennium shift. Evidence from a few recent population studies indicate that the prevalence may be levelling or even decreasing in some areas in Europe. Since the 1970s, a substantial and ongoing decrease in smoking prevalence has been observed in several European countries including Sweden. The aim of the current study was to estimate the prevalence, characteristics and risk factors for COPD in the Swedish general population. A further aim was to estimate the prevalence trend of COPD in Northern Sweden from 1994 to 2009.MethodsTwo large random population samples were invited to spirometry with bronchodilator testing and structured interviews in 2009–2012, one in south-western and one in northern Sweden, n = 1839 participants in total. The results from northern Sweden were compared to a study performed 15 years earlier in the same area and age-span. The diagnosis of COPD required both chronic airway obstruction (CAO) and the presence of respiratory symptoms, in line with the GOLD documents since 2017. CAO was defined as post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC < 0.70, with sensitivity analyses based on the FEV1/FVC < lower limit of normal (LLN) criterion.ResultsBased on the fixed ratio definition, the prevalence of COPD was 7.0% (men 8.3%; women 5.8%) in 2009–2012. The prevalence of moderate to severe (GOLD ≥ 2) COPD was 3.5%. The LLN based results were about 30% lower. Smoking, occupational exposures, and older age were risk factors for COPD, whereof smoking was the most dominating risk factor. In northern Sweden the prevalence of COPD, particularly moderate to severe COPD, decreased significantly from 1994 to 2009, and the decrease followed a decrease in smoking.ConclusionsThe prevalence of COPD has decreased in Sweden, and the prevalence of moderate to severe COPD was particularly low. The decrease follows a major decrease in smoking prevalence over several decades, but smoking remained the dominating risk factor for COPD.

- Rationale: Spirometry is essential for diagnosis and assessment of prognosis in COPD.Objectives: To identify FEV1 trajectories and their determinants, based on annual spirometry measurements among individuals with and without airway obstruction. Furthermore, to assess mortality in relation to trajectories.Methods: In 2002-04, individuals with airway obstruction (AO) (FEV1/VC<0.70, n=993) and age- and sex-matched non-obstructive (NO) referents were recruited from population-based cohorts. Annual spirometries until 2014 were utilized in joint-survival Latent Class Mixed Models to identify lung function trajectories. Mortality data were collected during 15 years of follow-up.Results: Three trajectories were identified among the AO-cases and two among the NO referents. Trajectory membership was driven by baseline FEV1%predicted (%pred) in both groups and additionaly, pack-years in AO and current smoking in NO. Longitudinal FEV1%pred level depended on baseline FEV1%pred, pack-years and obesity. The trajectories were distributed: 79.6% T1AO FEV1-high with normal decline, 12.8% T2AO FEV1-high with rapid decline, and 7.7% T3AO FEV1-low with normal decline (mean 27, 72 and 26 mL/year) among AO-individuals, and 96.7% T1NO FEV1-high with normal decline and 3.3% T2NO FEV1-high with rapid decline (mean 34 and 173 mL/year) among referents. Hazard for death was increased for T2AO (HR1.56) and T3AO (HR3.45) vs. T1AO, and for T2NO (HR2.99) vs. T1NO.Conclusions: Three different FEV1 trajectories were identified among those with airway obstruction and two among the referents, with different outcomes in terms of FEV1-decline and mortality. The FEV1 trajectories among airway obstructive and the relationship between low FVC and trajectory outcome are of particular clinical interest.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this paper is to analyse approaches to issues of risk, responsibility and representations of violence in women social workers' conversations with alleged or confirmed violent fathers. The study adds to a growing body of research on agencies' handling of intimate partner violence (IPV) in the context of separation. Empirically, the study draws from 12 structured, audio recorded and transcribed interviews with support-seeking and divorced fathers, from five municipalities in Sweden, conducted as part of a cooperation project in which a risk-detection method (Family Law Detection Of Overall Risk Screen [FL-DOORS]) was also tested. The results suggest a tension between different professional tasks. To validate information on IPV, detect risk and enhance a child perspective competes with other professional projects, most obviously with promoting cooperation between parents. The study confirms previous research, which demonstrates unique challenges facing women social workers and counsellors when working with men as perpetrators. In conclusion, the paper concurs with the call for a focus on responsibility and on safe parenting in professional conversations with allegedly or confirmed abusive fathers.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper builds on the need to reinterpret industrial digital transformation and co-workership with the starting point that introducing and implementing digital initiatives is a multifaceted challenge for the manufacturing industry. Hence, this paper addresses how co-workership in manufacturing can be reinterpreted when navigating organizational and technological aspects of industrial digital transformation. To answer this, co-workers at different organizational levels have participated in five focus groups with a total of 25 participants to reinterpret industrial digital transformation over time, collaboratively structuring what the endeavors might entail. The results show that participants are positive towards digital technologies but critical towards organizational changes. It is argued that this affects the four conceptual pairs of the co-workership wheel. Thus, this paper contributes a revised model for co-workership for industrial digital transformation that contributes to the needed technological and organizational innovation

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article, an employee perspective has been applied in aiming to explore how organizations face challenges and take responsibility for industrial digitalization, thus extending the research on the human-centric perspective in relation to Industry 4.0 technologies. To give emphasis to the human-centric perspective, the co-workership wheel was applied to identify and analyze data. The findings of an explorative longitudinal qualitative case study consisting of 35 in-depth interviews with informants from a manufacturing company were used. Additional data collection consisted of documents and project meetings. By applying a human-centric perspective, llessons learned from this case study show that taking responsibility for industrial digitalization is challenging and the importance of an adaptive organizational culture and a focus on learning and competence are crucial. We argue that the findings give useful implications for manufacturing organizations navigating the challenges of industrial digitalization to sense and seize the benefits of Industry 4.0 technologies.

Artificial and human aspects of Industry 4.0: an industrial work-integrated-learning research agenda
- 2021
-
Ingår i: VILÄR. - 9789189325036
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The manufacturing industry is currently under extreme pressure to transform their organizations and competencies to reap the benefits of industry 4.0. The main driver for industry 4.0 is digitalization with disruptive technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, internet of things, digital platforms, etc. Industrial applications and research studies have shown promising results, but they rarely involve a human-centric perspective. Given this, we argue there is a lack of knowledge on how disruptive technologies take part in human decision-making and learning practices, and to what extent disruptive technologies may support both employees and organizations to “learn”. In recent research the importance and need of including a human-centric perspective in industry 4.0 is raised including a human learning and decision-making approach. Hence, disruptive technologies, by themselves, no longer consider to solve the actual problems.Considering the richness of this topic, we propose an industrial work-integrated-learning research agenda to illuminate a human-centric perspective in Industry 4.0. This work-in-progress literature review aims to provide a research agenda on what and how application areas are covered in earlier research. Furthermore, the review identifies obstacles and opportunities that may affect manufacturing to reap the benefits of Industry 4.0. As part of the research, several inter-disciplinary areas are identified, in which industrial work-integrated-learning should be considered to enhance the design, implementation, and use of Industry 4.0 technologies. In conclusion, this study proposes a research agenda aimed at furthering research on how industrial digitalization can approach human and artificial intelligence through industrial work-integrated-learning for a future digitalized manufacturing.

Hydrogen-Powered Vehicles: Comparing the Powertrain Efficiency and Sustainability of Fuel Cell versus Internal Combustion Engine Cars
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Energies. - 1996-1073 .- 1996-1073. ; 17:5
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Due to the large quantities of carbon emissions generated by the transportation sector, cleaner automotive technologies are needed aiming at a green energy transition. In this scenario, hydrogen is pointed out as a promising fuel that can be employed as the fuel of either a fuel cell or an internal combustion engine vehicle. Therefore, in this work, we propose the design and modeling of a fuel cell versus an internal combustion engine passenger car for a driving cycle. The simulation was carried out using the quasistatic simulation toolbox tool in Simulink considering the main powertrain components for each vehicle. Furthermore, a brief analysis of the carbon emissions associated with the hydrogen production method is addressed to assess the clean potential of hydrogen-powered vehicles compared to conventional fossil fuel-fueled cars. The resulting analysis has shown that the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle is almost twice as efficient compared to internal combustion engines, resulting in a lower fuel consumption of 1.05 kg-H2/100 km in the WLTP driving cycle for the fuel cell vehicle, while the combustion vehicle consumed about 1.79 kg-H2/100 km. Regarding using different hydrogen colors to fuel the vehicle, hydrogen-powered vehicles fueled with blue and grey hydrogen presented higher carbon emissions compared to petrol-powered vehicles reaching up to 2–3 times higher in the case of grey hydrogen. Thus, green hydrogen is needed as fuel to keep carbon emissions lower than conventional petrol-powered vehicles.

- Objectives: To assess potential correlations between intraepidermal nerve fiber densities (IENFD), graded with light microscopy, and clinical measures of peripheral neuropathy in elderly male subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), and type 2 diabetes (T2DM), respectively. Materials and methods: IENFD was assessed in thin sections of skin biopsies from distal leg in 86 men (71-77 years); 24 NGT, 15 IGT, and 47 T2DM. Biopsies were immunohistochemically stained for protein gene product (PGP) 9.5, and intraepidermal nerve fibers (IENF) were quantified manually by light microscopy. IENFD was compared between groups with different glucose tolerance and related to neurophysiological tests, including nerve conduction study (NCS; sural and peroneal nerve), quantitative sensory testing (QST), and clinical examination (Total Neuropathy Score; Neuropathy Symptom Score and Neuropathy Disability Score). Results: Absent IENF was seen in subjects with T2DM (n = 10; 21%) and IGT (n = 1; 7%) but not in NGT. IENFD correlated weakly negatively with HbA1c (r = −.268, P =.013) and Total Neuropathy Score (r = −.219, P =.042). Positive correlations were found between IENFD and sural nerve amplitude (r =.371, P =.001) as well as conduction velocity of both the sural (r =.241, P =.029) and peroneal nerve (r =.258, P =.018). Proportions of abnormal sural nerve amplitude became significantly higher with decreasing IENFD. No correlation was found with QST. Inter-rater reliability of IENFD assessment was good (ICC = 0.887). Conclusions: Signs of neuropathy are becoming more prevalent with decreasing IENFD. IENFD can be meaningfully evaluated in thin histopathological sections using the presented technique to detect neuropathy.

Ingår i: European clinical respiratory journal. - : Informa UK Limited. - 2001-8525. ; 7:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Maximum exercise workload (WMAX) is today assessed as the first part of Cardiopulmonary Exercise testing. The WMAX test exposes patients with COPD, often having cardiovascular comorbidity, to risks. Our research project was initiated with the final aim to eliminate the WMAX test and replace this test with a predicted value of WMAX, based on a prediction algorithm of WMAX derived from multicentre studies. Methods: Baseline data (WMAX, demography, lung function parameters) from 850 COPD patients from four multicentre studies were collected and standardized. A prediction algorithm was prepared using Random Forest modelling. Predicted values of WMAX were used in a new WMAX test, which used a linear increase in order to reach the predicted WMAX within 8 min. The new WMAX test was compared with the standard stepwise WMAX test in a pilot study including 15 patients with mild/moderate COPD. Results: The best prediction algorithm of WMAX included age, sex, height, weight, and six lung function parameters. FEV1 and DLCO were the most important predictors. The new WMAX test had a better correlation (R2 = 0.84) between predicted and measured WMAX than the standard WMAX test (R2 = 0.66), with slopes of 0.50 and 0.46, respectively. The results from the new WMAX test and the standard WMAX test correlated well. Conclusion: A prediction algorithm based on data from four large multicentre studies was used in a new WMAX test. The prediction algorithm provided reliable values of predicted WMAX. In comparison with the standard WMAX test, the new WMAX test provided similar overall results.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose Both technological and human-centric perspectives need to be acknowledged when combining lean production practices and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies. This study aims to explore and explain how lean production practices and I4.0 technologies may coexist to enhance the human-centric perspective of manufacturing operations in the era of Industry 5.0 (I5.0).Design/methodology/approach The research approach is an explorative and longitudinal case study. The qualitative data collection encompasses respondents from different job functions and organizational levels to cover the entire organization. In total, 18 interviews with 19 interviewees and five focus groups with a total of 25 participants are included.Findings Identified challenges bring forth that manufacturing organizations must have the ability to see beyond lean production philosophy and I4.0 to meet the demand for a human-centric perspective in socially sustainable manufacturing in the era of Industry 5.0. Practical implications The study suggests that while lean production practices and I4.0 practices may be considered separately, they need to be integrated as complementary approaches. This underscores the complexity of managing simultaneous organizational changes and new digital initiatives.Social implications The research presented illuminates the elusive phenomena comprising the combined aspects of a human-centric perspective, specifically bringing forth implications for the co-existence of lean production practices and I4.0 technologies, in the transformation towards I5.0.Originality/value The study contributes to new avenues of research within the field of socially sustainable manufacturing. The study provides an in-depth analysis of the human-centric perspective when transforming organizations towards Industry 5.0.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Contemporary manufacturing organizations formulate strategies towards smart manufacturing. However, strategies often merely regard technological improvements of working processes and activities and pay limited attention to human-centric perspectives. This study addresses the complex phenomenon of reaching socially sustainable smart manufacturing by exploring the human-centric perspectives in the eras of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0. Data were collected through an explorative qualitative case study with focus groups applying the history wall approach to document informants’ choices of activities that impact digitalization. To investigate informants’ interpretations and experiences of digital initiatives and prospects, the history wall approach was coupled with the analytical lens of the co-workership wheel, with its four conceptual pairs: trust and openness, community spirit and cooperation, engagement and meaningfulness, responsibility, and initiative. A total of 17 informants from different organizational levels at a case company participated. Activities, impacting digitalization, brought forward were grouped into technology, organization, and external impact. Results showed that human-centric and intangible perspectives surfaced as prerequisites when navigating industrial digitalization. Further, digital initiatives and prospects risk drowning in re-occurring organizational changes making successful implementation difficult. Thus, organizations cannot rely solely on technology, but must consider activities related to organizational aspects and impacts from the external environment, when introducing digital initiatives. Intrinsically, recognition of the co-workership concept, emphasizing human-centricity, can support the foundation necessary for bridging the gap towards socially sustainable smart manufacturing and strengthening the emerging I5.0 research.

- Contemporary manufacturing companies are navigating industrial digitalization anticipating increased production efciency and competitiveness in a volatile environment. This study focuses on the implementation processes of digital tools for production planning and control (PPC), i.e., advanced planning and scheduling (APS) software, in relation to the application of analog planning with physical fow boards. Digital tools can support understanding the consequences of production changes and variations, hence facilitating adaptable and resilient manufacturing. However, technological changes can be daunting, and efective implementations require dynamic capabilities to remain competitive in elusive environments. The aim is to study the implementation processes of an APS software to understand the requirements of fruitfully moving from analog planning to next-generation digital tools for decision support in PPC. The paper presents an explorative case study, at a manufacturing company within the energy sector. The interview study took place over 9 months during 2020–2021, investigating current and retrospective aspects of the case across 2019–2021. The case study comprises 17 in-depth interviews with a range of company employees, e.g., logistics managers and functions responsible for digitalization development. The results highlight the challenges of implementing and especially trusting digital tools for PPC. To realize the value of digital tools for PPC, it is argued that it is imperative to simultaneously apply a human-centric perspective in decision making to ensure trustworthy, sustainable, and resilient human-data-technology nexus implementations towards smart manufacturing

A climate report gone missing : power mechanisms in Swedish national transport planning

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While the technological development of vehicles and fuels is not adequate to meet current climate mitigation targets, infrastructure development also plays an important role in transforming the transport system. Previous studies have argued that conventional infrastructure planning is incapable of implementing climate mitigation. The aim of the paper is to provide insights into power means and mechanisms that counteract integration of climate mitigation targets in infrastructure planning. This is done by an in-depth case study of current Swedish national transport planning. This case provides a rich illustration of a situation with high political ambitions regarding climate mitigation on the one hand, and power mechanisms and resistance with regard to climate goals during the planning process on the other. The case is analysed using the perspective of power circuits and shows how forecasting works as an obligatory passage point, sorting in and out which analyses will be part of the decision-making material. Analyses which do not fit the forecasting model are dismissed from planning. The conclusion is that as long as the transport infrastructure planning practice is dependent on forecasting as the only central analysis there will be difficulties in changing the scope of infrastructure planning and making climate goals central for transport planning.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Sedan den 1 januari 2020 är FN:s barnkonvention införlivad i svensk lag vilket innebär att de rättigheter som följer av konventionen ska beaktas i alla beslutsprocesser som rör barn upp till 18 år. Transporter berör alla barn i vardagen och kollektivtrafiken är central för många barns självständiga mobilitet. Men hur har barnkonventionen påverkat arbetet i de regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna? På vilka sätt och i vilka sammananhang inkluderas barn i kollektivtrafikplaneringen? Vilka hinder och möjligheter finns för att involvera barn i kollektivtrafikplaneringen? Syftet i detta projekt har varit att undersöka om och på vilka sätt barn involveras i den regionala kollektivtrafikplaneringen.Det empiriska materialet baserar sig på e-postintervjuer till alla 21 RKM:er, dess trafikförsörjningsprogram, andra relevanta regionala dokument som berör barn och kollektivtrafik samt sju semi-strukturerade intervjuer med tjänstepersoner på sex RKM:er utvalda utifrån storlek, geografi och svaren i e-postintervjuerna. Resultaten har analyserats utifrån begreppen barnperspektiv, som innebär att vuxna utifrån tidigare kunskap antar ett vad barnen behöver, respektive barns perspektiv, som i stället innebär att barnen själva involveras i planeringen.Barnkonventionen har i vissa regioner inneburit att nya rutiner och åtgärder införts för att integrera barn i kollektivtrafikplaneringen medan konventionen i andra regioner inte haft samma påverkan. Här finner vi regioner som både medvetet arbetat med att integrera barn i planeringen utifrån konventionen bland annat för att politikerna anser det vara en viktig fråga och regioner som mindre medvetet arbetat med frågan utifrån ståndpunkten att barn och deras familjer är en viktig och stor kundgrupp. Det som framför allt upplevs svårt är att involvera barnen själva i planeringen, men en del regioner har arbetat med detta och funnit olika metoder och lösningar för att hantera utmaningen.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Syftet i följande kapitel är att beskriva och diskutera konsekvenserna av införlivandet av barnkonventionen i svensk lagstiftning för planeringen av kollektivtrafik hos de regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna. Har barns position i kollektivtrafikplaneringen fått vind i seglen, råder det stiltje eller är det motvind? Vad gör de regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna för att uppfylla barnkonventionen? Vilka hinder finns? Detta kapitel baserar sig på en kvalitativ studie genomförd under åren 2021–22 där materialet utgjorts av vid tidpunkten gällande trafikförsörjningsprogram (det övergripande strategiska dokumentet för kollektivtrafikens utveckling i varje region) för samtliga 21 regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheter (RKM), e-post intervjuer med samtliga 21 RKM, kompletterande dokument om hur regionerna arbetar med barn i planeringen (om sådant funnits) och sju djupintervjuer med tjänstepersoner

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Kollektivtrafik är beroende av infrastruktur för sin funktion. Genom att använda sig av ett begrepp som ”hela resan” i utvecklingen av kollektivtrafikens planer och program, har de regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheterna också visat att de intresserar sig för infrastrukturen som ansluter till kollektivtrafikens hållplatser och bytespunkter, samt vilka möjligheter det där finns för exempelvis parkering och laddning. Infrastrukturen som möjliggör att individer kan cykla, gå och åka bil till kollektivtrafiken har också blivit mer betydelsefull för den strategiska planeringen av kollektivtrafiken. I regionerna utanför de tre storstadsregionerna är detta ”hela resan”-perspektiv potentiellt viktigt då kollektivtrafiken inte är lika utbyggd som i storstaden, vilket gör att resenärerna har ett större behov av att kunna transportera sig till kollektivtrafiken om den ska kunna användas. I fokus för denna studie är utvecklingen av ”hela resan”-perspektivet i kollektivtrafikplaneringen i de 18 svenska regionerna utanför storstäderna och vad den utvecklingen betyder för den regionala samhällsplaneringen.Denna studie baserar sig på en kvalitativ analys av kollektivtrafikens centrala strategidokument, Regionala Trafikförsörjningsprogram (TFP); den regionala infrastrukturens strategi och investeringsplan, Länstransportplaner (LTP); samt semi-strukturerade intervjuer med centralt placerade tjänstepersoner inom Regionala kollektivtrafikmyndigheter. Dokumenten som analyserats är tre generationer TFP och tre generationer LTP, publicerade efter 2012 och fram till 2022. En centralt placerad representant för varje region har djupintervjuats. I stort sett samtliga regioner använder sig av begreppet ”hela resan” i sina senaste TFP och argumenterar för att det är ett viktigt fokus för kollektivtrafikens utveckling i regionen. Användningen av begreppet har ökat över tid och samtidigt har detaljrikedomen i hur perspektivet framställs och förklaras i TFP blivit större. De åtgärder som beskrivs i TFP är ofta pendlarparkeringar för såväl cykel som bil. Laddmöjligheter för bilar blir också viktigare. I tätorterna fokuserar man på den anslutande infrastrukturen för gång och cykel, medan det i landsbygd är bilen som står i fokus. Av en del regioner framhålls också att den tillgänglighetsanpassning av hållplatser som sker för att göra de tillgängliga för funktionsnedsatta också kan ses som en del i ”hela resan” arbetet, eftersom de åtgärderna ofta innebär förändringar i infrastrukturen runt om.
