Crevice-free, high reliability bi-metallic surgical instruments manufactured from shape memory alloys (CleanTools)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2014,
Flexible medical instruments such as bone reamers are currently constructed from multiple parts in dissimilar materials, which have very different properties. The current method of linking these parts together is by mechanical coupling. Effective decontamination of such instruments is challenging but is critical to avoid cross infection between patients. The geometry of the instrument assembly (pa ...

Advanced Structural Light-Weight Architectures for Electric Vehicles (E-Light)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
The automotive industry has not yet decided which the optimum architecture solution for electric vehicles is; this and the fact that requirements and constraints deriving from an electrical powertrain are much less stringent in several areas make necessary to study new solutions specifically designed for the particularities of electric vehicles. Therefore E-LIGHT proposal aims at exploring all the ...
