This systematic literature review inquires into the role of socio-technical experiments for autonomous driving and their potential to shape mobility transitions towards sustainability. As an emerging technology in an early stage of transition, AVs are increasingly being tested in different...

How could European long-distance transport - under different conditions and in different contexts - meet the following targets in 2047: • Reducing oil consumption by 80% • Reducing CO2 emissions by 60% • High level of accessibility – to offer an efficient, effective transportation system...

To focus on processes of scientific and technological design and on how newly designed objects are used in different ways than initially intended (“displaced”), the organizers (the Society for Social Studies on Science-4S and the European Association of Studies on Science and...

In the transport sector, despite a number of political initiatives, the energy demands as well as greenhouse gas emissions are growing at an alarming speed. This holds true especially for road and air transport. Recent volatility in oil prices as well as the corresponding political instabilities...

Purpose – As in other socio‐technical fields, future‐oriented technology analysis (FTA) methods are used in transport planning to provide knowledge for decision‐making. Potential effects of policy interventions should be assessed; risk and uncertainties should be reduced; unintended effects...

The report provides an overview on the scenarios and a preliminary discussion of the results. The scenarios consist of quantitative model-based calculations that are embedded in qualitative storylines. The scenarios follow three basic strategies to reach eco-efficiency: a) making transport modes...
