Automated in-line Metrology for Nanoscale Production (aim4np)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
Knowing the mechanical properties of workpieces and machine-tools also at the nanometer scale is an absolute necessity for an efficient nanoscale production. Current technologies are lacking the flexibility and robustness needed for measuring such key parameters as topography, morphology, roughness, adhesion, or micro- and nano-hardness directly in a production environment. This hinders rapid deve ...

Hydrogen fuel Quality requirements for transportation and other energy applications (HyQ)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
Hydrogen-based energy conversion devices, especially proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), are known to be sensitive to hydrogen fuel impurities. In this context, adequate specification of hydrogen quality, as well as means of checking H2 fuel compliance, are crucial to warrant reliability of these devices. Besides, a technical and economical compromise between performance loss and purifica ...

Reference Materials for Biofuel Specifications (BIOREMA)
Start date: Nov 27, 2008, End date: Nov 26, 2010,
With the increased addition of biological products to petrol and diesel, e.g. ethanol and FAME, the quality of these products becomes more important. There is, however, up to now no international consensus on the technical specifications of biofuel. Nor is it clear what measurement standards, reference materials and measurement techniques are needed. The proposed project will deal with the subjec ...
