Next generation Pass-By Noise approaches for new powertrain vehicles (PBNv2)

Start date: May 1, 2017, End date: Apr 30, 2021,

With transportation noise being the second most deadly environmental pollutant in Europe, engineering for future mobility must be inspired by ecology, economy and health to enable green and silent vehicles. Legislations define maximum noise emission limits that have to be complied with during standardized pass-by noise test procedures. Given novel, often electrified, vehicle powertrain concepts, n ...

Fibre break models for designing novel composite microstructures and applications (FiBreMoD)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2020,

Limiting the climate change-induced temperature increase to less than 2°C will require strong reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Lightweight materials and fibre-reinforced composites in particular, are a key enabling technology to achieve this goal. Current composite applications are however strongly overdesigned due to a lack of reliable design tools and predictive models for their mechanica ...

Assessment methodologies for forward looking Integrated Pedestrian and further extension to Cyclists Safety Systems (AsPeCSS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2014,

According to the World Health Organisation Global status report on road safety 2009, pedestrians account for more than 19% of road fatalities in the EU-27. It is well known that most accidents with pedestrians are caused by the driver being in alert or misinterpretation of the situation. For that reason advanced forward looking integration safety systems have a high potential to improve safety for ...
