Configurable and Adaptable Trucks and Trailers for Optimal Transport Efficiency (TRANSFORMERS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
Today trucks are designed and optimised towards a limited variance set of usage and for maximum payload. Future trucks-trailers are easily adaptable for each freight, load and mission. And, in the operation phase, the vehicle combination automatically adjusts itself to the actual driving environment (i.e. traffic situation, topology, and payload). This option has large potential to contribute to t ...

Assessment of Integrated Vehicle Safety Systems for improved vehicle safety (ASSESS)
Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"ASSESS mobilises the European research community and car industry to develop a relevant set of test and assessment methods applicable to a wide range of integrated vehicle safety systems. Methods will be developed for driver behavioural aspects, pre crash sensing performance and crash performance under conditions influenced by pre crash driver and vehicle actions. The gained know-how will be impl ...

Energy Efficient Vehicles for Road Transport (EE-VERT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
"Road transport is the second largest EU producer of CO2, one of the greenhouse gases responsible for climate change. While some improvements in efficiency of road vehicles have been achieved, continued growth in traffic and congestion mean that CO2 emissions from road transport have grown overall. At the same time rising fuel prices and supply instability also give pressure for increased efficien ...
