Future Improvement for Energy and Noise (FINE 1)
Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
The FINE 1 project aims to reduce operational costs of railways by a reduction of energy use and noise related to rail traffic. The project results are expected to enable an increase of traffic in Europe and to enhance the attractiveness of railway in relation to other modes of transport. The project activities will support the innovation process within the S2R Technical Demonstrators (TDs) by p ...

Towards a REgulatory FRamework for the usE of Structural new materials in railway passenger and freight CarbOdyshells (REFRESCO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 29, 2016,
The transportation industry has for a long time been engaged in the application of new lightweight materials for primary structural design in an effort to develop more energy efficient structures to meet low emissions targets without compromising public safety.This is also true for the rail industry, but the implementation of new lightweight materials has been slow mainly due to the lack of suita ...

Virtual certification of acoustic performance for freight and passenger trains (ACOUTRAIN)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
ACOUTRAIN will simplify and improve the acoustic certification process of new rolling stock, in particular relating to the TSI Noise. Today the need of conformity assessment for a new vehicle according to the TSI Noise represents a significant element of both cost and time to market due to the need to carry out expensive and time consuming tests. The goal of the proposed project is to speed up the ...
