Factories of the Future Resources, Technology, Infrastructure and Services for Simulation and Modelling 2 (Fortissimo 2)
Start date: Nov 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
Fortissimo 2 will drive the uptake of advanced modelling, simulation and data analytics by European engineering and manufacturing SMEs and mid-caps. Such an uptake will deliver improved design processes, better products and services, and improved competitiveness. For the European Union as a whole this means improved employment opportunities and economic growth.The importance of advanced ICT to the ...

Reducing the CO2 Emission of Urban guided Systems through the full recovery of the brake Energy of metro trains. (RE-USE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
Background
Rail transport is often an environmentally friendly option: it is, for example, between three and five times more energy efficient than most road transport. However, there is still room for improvement and rail transport must contribute further to the EUâs effort to reduce CO2 emissions. Thus, one of the principal objectives of European railw ...

The Railway-Industry Partnership for Integrated Security of Rail Transport (PROTECTRAIL)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
Facing the problem of enhancing the railway security with a systematic top-down approach (i.e. to search for an all-inclusive solution valid for all the conceivable threat scenarios) is judged by PROTECTRAIL members too ambitious even if it could generate potential economies of scale and effort rationalisation. The proposed PROTECTRAIL approach is therefore to split the problem of making the railw ...

INtegrated European Signalling System (INESS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
"Due to the seamless guidance by rails, the railway system requires a dedicated signalling sub-system, whereby a major part of the functionality must be ensured and controlled on the infrastructure side. From a European perspective, the traditional signalling is one of the most conservative parts of the railway system strongly bound to the national traditions by all involved parties.Since 1990 the ...
