Integrated evaluation of energy and emission reduction potential and management strategies for urban road systems
Anastasio, Sara; Wu, Shaopeng; Bohne, Rolf André; Passer, Alexander; Spaun, Sebastian; Kristensen, Terje; Li, Jiashuo; Xie, Jun; Kreiner, Helmuth; Hoff, Inge; Barbieri, Diego Maria; Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Lau, Albert; Amirkhanian, Serji N. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Solving the problems of high energy consumption and high emissions generated by the urban road systems is of great importance for the construction of low-carbon cities. Several tools have been developed to establish a ... -
Life cycle assessment (LCA) to evaluate the environmental impacts of urban roads: a literature review
Hoxa, Endrit; Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Passer, Alexander; Kreiner, Helmuth; Wu, Shaopeng; Li, Jiashuo; Bohne, Rolf André (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)With the ratification of the Paris climate agreement to avoid the uncompensated effects of climate change, 197 countries will have to dramatically reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030. In the case of the ... -
Life cycle assessment of roads: Exploring research trends and harmonization challenges
Hoxha, Endrit; Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Barbieri, Diego Maria; Wang, F.; Bohne, Rolf André; Kristensen, Terje; Passer, A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The transparency, heterogeneity and hypotheses considered in the calculation of the environmental impacts of roads are still barriers to the identification of low-carbon solutions. To overcome this problem, this study ... -

Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Ebrahimi, Babak; Booto, Gaylord Kabongo; O'Born, Reyn Joseph; Brattebø, Helge; Wallbaum, Holger; Bohne, Rolf André (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Purpose Winter road maintenance in the Nordic climate is demanding due to challenging weather conditions, high precipitation, and icy conditions. As a leading country in the transition to low-emission transport, Norway ... -
Optimizing Road Gradients Regarding Earthwork Cost, Fuel Cost, and Tank-to-Wheel Emissions
Booto, Gaylord Kabongo; Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Marinelli, Giuseppe; Brattebø, Helge; Bohne, Rolf André (Journal article, 2020)Emissions reduction has emerged as one of the principal targets in the planning and designing of road alignment today, and intelligent design methods can help optimize road alignment as a response toward more sustainable ... -
A review of environmental impacts of winter road maintenance
Vignisdottir, Hrefna Run; Ebrahimi, Babak; Booto, Gaylord Kabongo; O'Born, Reyn Joseph; Brattebø, Helge; Wallbaum, Holger; Bohne, Rolf André (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The need for winter road maintenance (WRM) is changing in cold regions due to climate change. How the different modes of WRM will contribute to future overall emissions from infrastructure is therefore of great interest ... -
