Markus Metallinos Log
About
Markus M. Log has a MSc in transportation engineering and project management from NTNU, with an exchange year at the University of California at Berkeley.
The ongoing PhD work, co-financed by NTNU and the Norwegian Public Roads Administration (NPRA), investigates upcoming changes with the introduction of digital and automated road freight transport. Deployment of automated trucks on Norwegian public roadways requires attention to aspects which are less common in other juristictions, such as difficult road alignment, large prevalence of two-way, two-lane rural roads and low motorway densities, long and narrow road tunnels and adverse weather and winter conditions. Economic and organizational concerns, digital connectivity and positioning are also adjacent issues which are explored.
Through field testing and interview studies, Log has gained experience in collecting and analyzing both quantitative and qualitative data. The project is undertaken together with PhD-student Maren H. Rø Eitrheim, researching human-factors and psychological aspects of introducing automation in the trucking industry.
