Low Energy And Near to zero emissions Ships (LeanShips)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

The specific challenge for waterborne transport call MG4.1 is, “To support developments that make new and existing vessels…more efficient and less polluting”. A sound way to support developments is, to demonstrate solutions that are sufficiently close to market so that ship owners will consider these in their future investment plans. Following this reasoning LeanShips will execute 8 demonstration ...

IMPROVED FASTENING SYSTEMS OF CLADDING WALL PANELS OF PRECAST BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC ZONES (SAFECLADDING)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

The current design practice of precast buildings is based on a frame model where the peripheral cladding panels enter only as masses without anystiffness. The panels are then connected to the structure with fastenings dimensioned with a local calculation on the base of their mass for anchorage forces orthogonal to the plane of the panels. This design approach does not work, as it was recently dram ...

Sustainable Energy mAnageMent for Underground Stations (SEAM4US)

Start date: Oct 3, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Underground transportation systems are big energy consumers (e.g. 63,1 millions of kWh / year), and have significant impacts on energy consumption at a regional scale. One third of the networks' energy is required for operating the subsystems of metro stations and surroundings, such as ventilation, vertical transportation and lightning. Although a relatively small percentage of energy can be saved ...
