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 ...

Developing Hardware and Design Methodologies for Heterogeneous Low Power Field Programmable Servers (FiPS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

The goal of this project is to reduce the power performance ratio within data-centres by improving the usability and usefulness of FPGAs, embedded CPU (eCPU), GPUs and multi/manycore accelerators in high-performance and low-power heterogeneous computing servers. We target applications between traditional super computing tasks (where huge amount of man-power can be spent for manual algorithm optimi ...

Efficient Systems and Propulsion for Small Aircraft (ESPOSA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The ESPOSA project will develop and integrate novel design and manufacture technologies for a range of small gas turbine engines up to approx. 1000 kW to provide aircraft manufacturers with better choice of modern propulsion units. It will also deal with engine related systems which contribute to the overall propulsion unit efficiency, safety and pilot workload reduction. Through the newly develop ...

Novel Electron Beam Surface Sculpting for Efficient Heat Exchange (HEATSCULPTOR)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

By combining a new surface engineering process with state-of-the-art thermal modelling, significant design and performance improvements to heat exchangers for electronic and electrical systems can be made. The surface designs created will not only provide an increase in surface area (allowing for smaller size heat exchanger packaging), but also enable ‘designed’ flow over a surface (which will enh ...

Cost Effective Reinforcement of Fastener Areas in Composites (CERFAC)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"CERFAC’s major challenge is the design and manufacturing of strong and cost-efficient joints for high performance CFRP aero-structures.In particular, transfer of distributed loading along rivets lines in the assembly of flat or curved thin-walled stiffened panels, and introduction of concentrated loads for connecting lugs with thicker laminates are special & frequent problems. Hence, CERFAC focus ...

Landing Gear Noise Attenuation (NOISETTE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

"Within NOISETTE, Cenaero and VKI combine their respective expertise in computational fluid dynamics and acoustics in order to deliver a tailored solution for the aero-acoustic assessment and design of a low-noise configuration for a regional aircraft nose landing gear. The computational approach relies on performing high quality detached eddy simulations and on using the obtained noise sources fo ...

Living in a Changing Climate

"Living in a Changing Climate" is a bilateral partnership between an Icelandic and a Hungarian secondary school. The main objective was to investigate how ecosystems and human communities can exist in an environment shaped by the climate change. The two teams of 16-18-year old students worked on various projects targeting the signs of change in their countries and in two different ecosystems. One ...
