"ROlling resistance, Skid resistance, ANd Noise Emission measurement standards for road surfaces" (ROSANNE)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
"The main objective of this project is to advance the harmonization of measurement methods for skid resistance, noise emission and rolling resistance of road pavements and prepare for standardization. In this the project will follow the recommendations of key predecessor projects like TYROSAFE, HERMES, SILVIA and MIRIAM. The project aims at performing prenormative research to enable the creation o ...

Development of an innovative low rolling resistance truck tyre concept in combination with a full scale simulation tool box for tyre performance in function of material and road parameters (LORRY)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2016,
The aim of the LORRY project is to reduce trucks carbon footprint by developing an innovative low rolling resistance tyre concept combined with a comprehensive tool box for fleet fuel saving management. This proposed concept will go beyond current state of art and stakeholder or market expectations regarding tyre rolling resistance, mileage, driving safety, driving performance and material and man ...

PoroElastic Road SUrface: an innovation to Avoid Damages to the Environment (PERSUADE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
Low-noise road surfaces are recognized as a cost-effective tool for traffic noise abatement. The best performance can be achieved by optimizing surface texture and porosity. That way, a bottom line of a 3dB lifetime average reduction with respect to ordinary asphalt has been reached. Any progress must resort to another noise-relevant characteristic i.e. elasticity by which the noise due to tyre v ...

Tomorrow's Road Infrastructure Monitoring and Management (TRIMM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
Problem descriptionEffective, fair and sustainable road management require streamlined objective and up to date information. Advances in a range of sensing technologies and information processing have built up a potential for implementing new monitoring techniques that deliver key information for road management. The traditional monitoring techniques suffer for example in cost efficiency, time and ...

Re-road – End of life strategies of asphalt pavements (Re-road)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The majority of the European roads are paved with asphalt material. The dismantling and end of life strategies for these pavements are very divergent among the EU member states and the associated countries. In general the share of recycling the reclaimed asphalt in new asphalt courses is rather lower than it could be technically. The Re-road project aims to address these problems with a holistic ...

DISmantling and RECycling Techniques for road MATerials - Sharing knowledge and practices (DIRECT_MAT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
"The DIREC_MAT project objective is to share, at a European scale, knowledge and practices on recycling road and road-related waste in the aim of ensuring an environmentally-friendly and sustainable end-of-life for road infrastructure. Road material recycling processes have previously been studied in national and European research projects and have led to various levels of practical implementation ...
