The Electric Vehicle revOLUTION enabled by advanced materials highly hybridized into lightweight components for easy integration and dismantling providing a reduced life cycle cost logic (EVOLUTION)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

Hybrid-EVs and Full-EVs on the market are products where the Internal-Combustion-Engine (ICE) is supplemented by an electric-motor (HEV) or replaced by an all-electric power-train (FEV). Neither approach address lightweight or modularity inheriting the same disadvantages as conventional ICEV - Electrification of mobility must face a conceptual rEVOLUTION! This project breaks the paradigm of curren ...

Safe control of non cooperative vehicles through electromagnetic means (SAVELEC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

"SAVELEC aims to provide a solution for the external, safe control of a non cooperative vehicle without any consequences on the persons inside the vehicle or other persons and objects nearby. The proposed solution is based on the use of electromagnetic means, electromagnetic pulses (EMP) and high power microwaves (HPM), in order to disrupt the proper behaviour of the electronic components inside t ...

Integrated and Cost-Effective Solution to reduce the volume of Pig Slurry, minimize Pollutant Emissions and Process Energy Consumption (EfficientHeat)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

The increase of EU pig production and the intensification of its practice resulted of an increase of pigwaste production. In 2008, more than 930 million m3 of pig slurry was produced in the EU. Pigs areraised indoor and the manure collected is mostly slurry. Pig farmers need to treat a great volume ofresidue with high viscosity and variable physico-chemical composition. The leaks and air emissions ...
