New generation of protective coatings alternative to hard chrome (HARDALT)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

The total annual estimated direct cost of corrosion, not including wear damage, in the worlds is estimated at about 3.1% of the world’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Protective coatings serve to prevent wear and corrosion and thus reduce the total loss from corrosion and wear. Hard chromium plating is one of the most widely used techniques for production of such coatings. However, hard chromium fa ...

Automated Pollution Inspection Scanning System for Soil using a robotic vehicle (POLLINS)

Start date: Nov 15, 2013, End date: Nov 14, 2016,

"Currently, the detection of soil pollution is done by manual surveys which are inefficient, unreliable, time consuming and very expensive. The need of a better and low-cost technical approach, that would be able to assess contaminated areas before programing the required remediation actions, has become more intense due to public awareness for the environment.This project aims to develop a semi-au ...
