Virtual Simulation and Training of Assembly and Service Processes in Digital Factories (VISTRA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

The information gap between virtual product and manufacturing engineering and the physical start of production is a fundamental problem for Europe's manufacturers. Information about products and processes, which is currently distributed over heterogeneous systems, is rich of information, but a platform for presenting this knowledge according to the different user roles (e.g. production planners or ...

PEM with Innovative low cost Core for Automotive applicatioN (PEMICAN)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Up to now, much work has been performed on the catalyst but much on the active layers’ structure and on the two other major components (carbon and electrolyte) whereas they do have a major impact on the MEA’s performance and on Pt utilization.Based on this analysis, PEMICAN proposes to reduce the Pt loading for automotive application down to 0.15 gram of Pt per kW, by a twofold approach:1.to incr ...

High Energy Lithium-Ion Storage Solutions (HELIOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

"The reluctance of OEM worldwide to extend electric drive applications to the private customers depends partly from considerations on customer acceptance (limited range in the case of EV, long charging time after depletion of the battery, cost), but also from the increased reliability and life span that private customers are entitled to expect.The first goal of HELIOS project is to evaluate electr ...

Frontal Impact and Compatibility Assessment Research (FIMCAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

"For the real life assessment of vehicle’s safety in frontal collision the compatibility (described by the self protection level and the structural interaction) between the opponents is crucial. Although compatibility has been analysed worldwide for years, no final assessment approach was defined. Taking into account the EEVC WG15 and the FP5 VC-COMPAT project activities, two test approaches are t ...

Implementation of Virtual Testing in Safety Regulations (IMVITER)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"Computer aided engineering is a routinely used technology for the design and testing of road vehicles, including the simulation of their response to an impact and the prediction of the risk of injuries sustained by the potential victims. But, so far, the release of a vehicle on the market still depends on the verification of the product compliance with safety standards through a series of type ap ...

Understanding of Degradation Mechanisms to Improve Components and Design of PEFC (DECODE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

"The main objective of the planned project DECODE is to increase the life-time of fuel cells for automotive applications. It is well-known that liquid water plays a crucial role in the degradation processes of fuel cells. However, this specific degradation influence is not addressed sufficiently in the present research and development efforts. Therefore, DECODE aims at identifying characteristic b ...
