Advanced Hybrid Engines for Aircraft Development (AHEAD)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

...on the air transport systems dictate that aircraft should be less polluting, less noisy and more fuel efficient. Also, in the long term alternative fuels like biofuels and hydrogen will replace the traditional jet fuel. The ACARE in Europe has identified that CO2 emission and perceived noise levels should be reduced by half and NOx emission be reduced by 80% by 2020. However recent ACARE studies i ...

Integrated Ground and on-Board system for Support of the Aircraft Safe Take-off and Landing (GABRIEL)

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

...will be confronted with new challenges: it must be safer, greener and more effective than the current system. There will be more global industrial competition and fossil fuel reserves will diminish leading to increased fuel prices. New radical ideas, methods and technologies are needed to respond to these challenges and to keep Europe world leader in aviation. One of the ideas that came from the O ...
