HPC-Blade

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

The design of advanced (composite) wind turbine blades continues to evolve, but central spar-like structures and bonded cores remain the primary load-bearing and profile supporting elements. Aside from structural inefficiencies, these configurations are complex and expensive to manufacture using existing processes. Construction methods, composite-metal connections and loading complexities present ...

Currently, display industries, LCD and OLED displays manufacturing is based on Indium-Tin Oxide (ITO) Transparent Conducting Films (TCF). Nevertheless, Indium metal is a very scarce material and its worldwide resources are becoming increasingly limited. Thus, the prices of produced displays based on ITO will inevitably rise day by day if no alternative material is developed to replace it. More ...

"The QUATERNIAN project will use quantum-dot laser technology to expand the product ranges and support the competitive position of European SMEs selling into optical access network markets. Access networks based on optical technologies are rapidly growing, as traditional copper based networking proves overly complex, energy inefficient and has high maintenance cost. With the advent of high-speed m ...

Our novel concept is to develop a low-fat cheese processing technology to enable the production of low-fat Mozzarella-type ingredient cheese with superior texture, flavour and melting qualities. The newly developed low-fat cheese will be suitable for use in pizzas, ready meals, fast food, sandwiches and salads. Our primary target markets are the industrial cheese sector for chilled and frozen pizz ...

The oxy-acetylene flame has been used very widely in industry for many years and enjoys several positive characteristics including a high combustion temperature, wide availability, trained workforce and process versatility. However, it also has some drawbacks which are becoming more significant with increasing health and safety and environmental concerns; having significant quantities of highly co ...

Welding workshops operated by SME companies are a basic unit of industrial manufacturing. Economic pressures are forcing these firms to find solutions for wasteful and time consuming tasks, like creation of custom clamping assemblies for each set of pieces to be welded. The design and fabrication of the clamping assembly itself involves time and costs both for design and fabrication. These clampin ...

The principle of concentrated solar power (CSP) is to reflect and focus solar energy collected from a wide area on to one point, using the thermal energy to produce steam or a hot liquid in order to transfer or store the energy.For this proposal, the solar collector will be made of carbon fibre composite material. This can be designed to be stiff (maintaining its position) whilst being light weigh ...

"The total EU electronics industry employs ≈20.5 million people, sales exceeding €1 trillion and includes 396,000 SMEs. It is a major contributor to EU GDP and its size continues to grow fuelled by demand from consumers to many industries. Despite its many positive impacts, the industry also faces some challenges connected with the enormous quantity of raw materials that it needs for sustainabilit ...
