Welcome to join the SAFER seminar! We are happy to offer the opportunity to learn from Prof. Chris Cherry is a Professor in Civil Engineering at the University of Tennessee, while he is visiting Chalmers for Alexander Rasch upcoming dissertation in February.

This week we will learn about the new bicycle simulator with an innovative approach; the simulator is very similar to the experience of riding a real bike, unlike many other simulators!

How can we ensure a safe implementation and use of vehicles as well as services that do not have a driver in the vehicle who is responsible for the control at all times? Knowledge about how remote driving can be used in a safe and efficient way has been created with REDO - and you are welcome to learn about

Welcome to a SAFER Thursday lunch seminar! This week we will hear a presentation on the project HEAT. Susanne Gustafsson & Fredrik Lindberg joins us to talk about climate change and mobility; how well-planned urban environments can reduce heat-related health effects and increase well-being.

Welcome to a brief presentation about TØI and their collaboration interests and available competences.

Welcome to the SAFER Research area day! During these days the SAFER partners meet in the four Reference groups. These meetings are the formal arena for partners to meet and identify key issues and initiate needs-driven research, the base for establishing world-class competitive project portfolios. The work include to develop the project portfolio and secure that we conduct the research

In these webinars we give you an update about ongoing activities and opportunities for collaborations within the partnership! The meeting is open for all SAFER-partners.

Welcome to a SAFER Thursday lunch seminar! This week Rikard Fredriksson from the Swedish Transport Administration will give and update on Euro NCAP.

Welcome to the first Thursday lunch seminar for 2023! This session focuses on electromobility and battery safety. We will hear presentations from Linda Olofsson & Yang Li.

At what speed will we be able to move safely in road traffic in the future? In order to achieve the goal that no one should die or be seriously injured in road traffic, the speed must be adapted based on the human ability to handle a collision with the help of protective equipment.

Welcome to a SAFER Thursday lunch seminar! This week we will hear a presentation on the SAFER pre-study How We Roll. My Weidel and Lennart Ochel from VTI will talk about the prototype bicycle simulator built in the project.

Welcome to learn from Prof. Carolyn Unsworth, currently visiting professor at our partner Jönköping University! She will discuss with us Improving safety for bus passengers using wheelchairs and mobility scooters: Effectiveness of restraint and containment systems.

Welcome to join our Christmas breakfast!

Welcome to Vivekendra Singh's doctoral dissertation! He will defend his doctoral thesis "3-D rate dependent micromechanical model for polymer composites". Vivekendra Singh is an industrial PhD student at the division of Material and Computational Mechanics, Department of Industrial and Materials Science at Chalmers University of Technology and currently working at the Department of Polymer Material and Composite, RISE AB as

Welcome to I Putu Alit Putra's doctoral dissertation! He will defend his doctoral thesis "Occupant Neck Muscle Modelling in Rear-End Crashes". I Putu Alit Putra is a Ph.D student at the Injury Prevention Group, Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences, Division of Vehicle Safety. He focuses his research on human body computational modeling, specifically in the field of active neck

Welcome to our final Thursday seminar of 2022. This session is entirely devoted to the project In the Hub and SAFER has invited researchers from Scania and RISE to give a talk on their main insights from this project.

Prof Duane Cronin, University of Waterloo is going to be his opponent and we have got the opportunity to learn from him in his talk "Cortical Bone Fracture Model to Predict Loading, Fracture Initiation and Fracture Pattern for Application in Human Body Models".

Welcome to Daniel Åsljung's doctoral dissertation! He will defend his doctoral thesis "On Statistical Methods for Safety Validation of Automated Vehicles". Daniel Åsljung is a PhD student in the Mechatronics research group at Chalmers University, in collaboration with Zenseact. His research is based on theory and methods around the verification of autonomous vehicles. Since autonomous vehicles need to be able

Very welcome to a SAFER Thursday networking lunch and seminar! This week the topic is bike helmet rating. Jolyon Carroll, SAFER’s Research Area Director for Human Body Protection, has invited Madelen Fahlstedt from Mips for a talk to the SAFER community.

During this day we will visit Autoliv’s and Veoneer’s facilities, learn about their research, insights and ongoing projects. The purpose of the study tour is to learn more about our partners and the competence available for us in the SAFER partnership, as well as to share knowledge, exchange ideas and get inspiration for new projects. There will of course also
