Transition Location Effect on Shock Wave Boundary Layer Interaction (TFAST)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2016,
Vision-2020, whose objectives include the reduction of emissions and a more effective transport systems, puts severe demands on aircraft velocity and weight. These require an increased load on wings and aero-engine components. The greening of air transport systems means a reduction of drag and losses, which can be obtained by keeping laminar boundary layers on external and internal airplane parts ...

Smart Aircraft in Emergency Situations (SMAES)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
"Ditching analysis is requested for large transport aircraft by EASA. The respective requirements are specified under § ‘’CS 25.801 Ditching’’. They are primarily devoted to a minimisation of risks for immediate injuries and the provision of fair chances for an evacuation. A significant part of average air travel is over water and historically a planned or unplanned water-landing event occurs gros ...

Advanced In-flight Measurement Techniques 2 (AIM²)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
"Flight tests of new or modified aircraft are a necessary part of the design process and provide the final validation of the full scale aircraft design. Flight testing for certification is a critical phase as all trials proving compliance with specifications and regulations must be completed in the shortest possible time, while maintaining high quality standards in the certification process. Usual ...

"Prediction, Protection & Reduction of OrbiTal Exposure to Collision Threats" (P²-ROTECT)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
"The strategic importance of space systems is growing in Europe, for civil and defence applications (satellite communications, ..). Recent examples have shown that on-orbit collisions brought on by space debris are important threats. On one hand, some space debris are routinely tracked, making the collisions predictable, but they increase the cost of space missions’ management. On the other hand, ...
