Age of Auto Electric: Environment, Energy, and the Quest for the Sustainable Car
Electric cars were once as numerous as internal combustion engine cars before all but vanishing from American roads around World War I. Now, we are in the midst of an electric vehicle revival, and the goal for a sustainable car seems to be within reach. In Age of Auto Electric, Matthew N. Eisler shows that the halting development of the electric car in the intervening decades was a consequence …

Inverse Dynamic Game Methods for Identification of Cooperative System Behavior
This work addresses inverse dynamic games, which generalize the inverse problem of optimal control, and where the aim is to identify cost functions based on observed optimal trajectories. The identified cost functions can describe individual behavior in cooperative systems, e.g. human behavior in human-machine haptic shared control scenarios.

Experimenting for Sustainable Transport
Technological change is a central feature of modern societies and a powerful source for social change. There is an urgent task to direct these new technologies towards sustainability, but society lacks perspectives, instruments and policies to accomplish this. There is no blueprint for a sustainable future, and it is necessary to experiment with alternative paths that seem promising. Various ne…
