OPtimisation for low Environmental Noise impact AIRcraft (OPENAIR)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Reducing noise from aircraft operations perceived by airport neighbouring communities is a major challenge facing the aircraft manufacturing industry, social society and the air transport business. By adopting a whole aircraft approach based on the latest developments in active / adaptive technologies, flow control techniques and advances in computational aero-acoustics applied to the major causes ...

Community Oriented Solutions to Minimise aircraft noise Annoyance (COSMA)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"COSMA aims to develop engineering criteria for aircraft design and operations in order to reduce the annoyance within airport communities due to aircraft exterior noise. By today, such criteria do not exist since aircraft noise engineering has historically focused on achieving ever lower noise levels for individual events and at close distance from the runway. Within the frame of a unique approac ...

Breakthrough in European Ship and Shipbuilding Technologies (BESST)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

"Initiated by EUROYARDS, BESST aims to achieve a breakthrough in competitiveness, environmentally friendliness and safety of EU built ships. Focusing on passenger ships, ferries and mega-yachts, the results will to a large extend be applicable also to other ships. A holistic life cycle performance assessment on ship level will guide the technical developments on system level, clustered in System G ...

Integrated Solutions for Noise and Vibration Control in Vehicles (CO2NTROL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Exploiting the potential of integrated solutions for the control of noise and vibration in vehicles to improve vehicle fuel efficiency and reduce their impact on the environment is the principal motivation behind this proposal.Today’s cars represent a complex compromise between contradictory requirements with regard to safety, exhaust emissions, noise, performance and price. However, since the qu ...

Adaptive and Passive Flow Control for Fan Broadband Noise Reduction (FLOCON)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"Air traffic is predicted to grow by 5% per year in the short and medium term. Technology ad-vances are required to achieve this growth without unacceptable levels of noise. FLOCON addresses this issue by reducing fan noise at source through the development of innovative concepts based on flow control technologies. FLOCON is aimed primarily at reducing fan broadband noise. This is one of the most ...

valiDation of Radical Engine Architecture systeMs (DREAM)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

"Since the publication of the ACARE goals, the commercial and political pressure to reduce CO2 has increased considerably. DREAM is the response of the aero-engine community to this pressure. The first major DREAM objective is to design, integrate and validate new engine concepts based on open rotor contra-rotating architectures to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions 7% beyond the ACARE 2020 ...

Testing non-standard Higgs and top-quark production and decay at the CERN's Large Hadron Collider: a collaboration between theory and experiment (LHC-Phys)

Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2010,

This collaborative project is in the area of high energy particle physics phenomenology, with focus on some extensions of the Standard Model. The proposal is a research programme where the applicant's expertise on various theoretical aspects of non-standard Higgs and top-quark production in hadronic collisions is perfectly matched with that available at the host institution. The NExT Institute ha ...
