HYBRID ABLATIVE DEVELOPMENT FOR RE-ENTRY IN PLANETARY ATMOSPHERIC THERMAL PROTECTION (HYDRA)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
The aim of this proposal is the development of TPS for their use in space applications with extreme oxidative environments and high temperature resistance, such as hot parts of space vehicles for orbital entry (ARV), planetary probes and NEO exploration. Previous studies on ARV vehicle have shown that TPS hybrid systems based on ablators integrated with thermo-structural materials are good candida ...

Robust Advanced Materials for metal Supported SOFC (RAMSES)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2014,
"The RAMSES project aims at developing an innovative high performance, robust, durable and cost-effective Solid Oxide Fuel Cell based on the Metal Supported Cell concept i.e. the deposition of thin ceramic electrodes and electrolyte on a porous metallic substrate. Both planar and tubular cells will be developed. By considering advanced materials tailored for this cell design, such cells will be ab ...

A wearable miniaturized fall detection system for the elderly (FallWatch)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2011,
Falls among the elderly occur frequently. Approximately 30% of people over 65 fall accidentally each year, and for those over 80 this rate raises up to 50%. Falls are an important factor in the health limitations of the elderly due to a high morbidity caused by physical and psychological consequences, loss of independence and even death. Late or non existing responses cause 2 million persons havin ...

Coordination Of Network Descriptors for Urban Intelligent Transportation Systems (CONDUITS)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,
"The main objectives of this project are to develop Key Performance Indicators that assist European municipalities in business decisions for ITS projects and to facilitate best practice experiences between municipalities on experiences with ITS. An important aspect of the research is further to link the performance indicators to the current traffic situation in the cities. The project consortium c ...
