Human Factors of Automated Driving (HFAuto)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Road transport is an essential part of society but the burden of traffic crashes, congestion, and pollution is enormous. Highly automated driving (HAD) has the potential to resolve these problems and major car makers foresee that HAD will be technically ready for commercialisation within one decade from now. However, industry is ill-prepared to deal with imminent human-error and legal consequences ...

High Performance, Economical and Sustainable Biocomposite Building Materials (BioBuild)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2015,

The aim of BioBuild is to use biocomposites to reduce the embodied energy in building facade, supporting structure and internal partition systems by at least 50% over current materials with no increase in cost. This will lead to a step change in the use of sustainable, low carbon construction materials, by replacing aluminium, steel, FRP, brick and concrete in buildings.Facades are widely used in ...

GEOTRACEBILITY FAIR TRADE (GEO FAIR TRADE)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

Fair Trade is an activity area where CSOs play a key role. Fair Trade is also an activity area promoting the best social, economic and environmental practices of sustainable development. Unfortunately CSOs do not have the means to develop concerted strategies in Research and Technology Development. Their short term concerns often prevent them to have the necessary hindsight. The main objective of ...

Advanced Turbulence Simulation for Aerodynamic Application Challenges (ATAAC)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"The ATAAC project aims at improvements to Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods for aerodynamic flows used in today’s aeronautical industry. The accuracy of these is limited by insufficient capabilities of the turbulence modelling / simulation approaches available, especially at the high Reynolds numbers typical of real-life flows. As LES will not be affordable for such flows in the next 4 d ...
