Smart Aircraft in Emergency Situations (SMAES)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
"Ditching analysis is requested for large transport aircraft by EASA. The respective requirements are specified under § ‘’CS 25.801 Ditching’’. They are primarily devoted to a minimisation of risks for immediate injuries and the provision of fair chances for an evacuation. A significant part of average air travel is over water and historically a planned or unplanned water-landing event occurs gros ...

Strategic Research For Innovative Marine Propulsion Concepts (STREAMLINE)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
"Increasing environmental concerns and soaring oil prices are creating a new focus on fuel efficiency for the marine industry. Combining low emissions with demands for more advanced vessels than ever before drives the need for radically new propulsion concepts delivering a step-change in efficiency. STREAMLINE is the response of the marine community to this demand that will be addressed through fo ...

Ships oriented Innovative soLutions to rEduce Noise & Vibrations (SILENV)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"Transports are well known to be major contributors to noise pollution. Noise and vibrations (N&V) abatement naturally appears as an important objective for in the greening of surface transports.The SILENV project is a response to this requirement for the maritime domain.The consequences of N&V emissions from the ships are multiple. N&V emissions constitute a disturbance for both passengers and ha ...

Next generation Multi-mechanics Simulation Environment (NextMuSE) (NextMuSE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
The objective of NextMuSE is to initiate a paradigm shift in the technology of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational Multi-Mechanics (CMM) simulation software which is used to model physical processes in research and technology development across a range of industries.NextMuSE relies on a mesh-free method, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), which is fundamentally different from ...

High efficiency hybrid drive trains for small and medium sized marine craft (HYMAR)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
"Marine diesel electric and hybrid drive systems have been used in large ships and submarines for many years but have not yet been successfully transferred to smaller craft, despite claims to the contrary. Numerous attempts have been made, some very recent, but all have been sub optimal and most have failed completely. These failures are due to a lack of underpinning research and of certain key co ...
