PORT-Cities: Integrating Sustainability (PORTIS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2020,
Port Cities can be seen as multidimensional laboratories where challenges connected with urban mobility are more complex due to the dual system of gravity centre: the city, the port, not to mention their shared hinterland.These peculiarities are at once a challenge and an opportunity, as they provide scope for planning, researching and implementing integrated mobility solutions in distinctively co ...

New Bus ReFuelling for European Hydrogen Bus Depots (NewBusFuel)
Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
The overall aim of NewBusFuel is to resolve a significant knowledge gap around the technologies and engineering solutions required for the refuelling of a large number of buses at a single bus depot. Bus depot scale refuelling imposes significant new challenges which have not yet been tackled by the hydrogen refuelling sector:• Scale – throughputs in excess of 2,000kg/day (compared to 100kg/day fo ...

Development of Novel Inspection Systems for Railway Wheelsets (SAFERAIL)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2011,
"The contribution of the rail industry to the economic growth of the EU member states is widely acknowledged. Very recently, the European rail industry has started showing signs of recovery after a long period of steady decline. The technological advances in train design during the last few decades have led to the manufacturing of faster and more comfortable trains making rail transport a more att ...
