ETCS Advanced Testing and Smart Train Positioning System (EATS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Currently European Train Control System (ETCS) rollout is a major concern for the railway sector. Equipment for ETCS level 1 and 2 typically follows a long process before being put into service due to interpretation variations in the specification and certification procedures requiring long and expensive field-testing. On the other hand, migration from ETCS level 2 to 3 has not been yet foreseen d ...

Novel high performance, waterbased “high solids”and bio-based industrial wood coating (NEXT1KOAT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

The stringent Solvent Emission Directive (1999/13/EC), fully transposed in 2007, imposes limitations of emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) due to the use of organic solvents in paints and varnishes. The most economical way of limiting VOC emission is using water-based coating formulas in which water replaces a substantial amount of the organic solvents traditionally used. Unfortunately, ...
