Understanding the Long-Term fate of geologically stored CO2 (ULTIMATECO2)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

ULTimateCO2 will 1) significantly advance our knowledge of specific processes that could influence the long-term (LT) fate of geologically stored CO2 and 2) yield validated tools for predicting LT storage site performance. The 4-year collaborative programme will cover detailed lab, field and modelling studies of the main physical & chemical processes involved and their impacts in the LT: a) trappi ...

Long Life Bridges

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

Bridges, like many Civil Engineering products, are designed quite conservatively. For older bridges, this conservatism is very expensive – there is a great difference between the cost of strengthening an existing bridge and not doing so. Very often it is possible to prove that a bridge is perfectly safe even when it is old and has deteriorated since it was first built. Sometimes the deterioration ...

imProved reliabIlity inspeCtion of Aeronautic structure through Simulation Supported POD (PICASSO)

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

"With aging engines and the increase of air traffic in the next 20 years, a central challenge in the aeronautical industry will concern the increase of the efficiency of maintenance which still represents around 20% of an operator’s indirect operating costs. This challenge is particularly important for metallic parts within the engine aircraft industry, because of the criticity of rotative compone ...
