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 ...

A Source code analysis Toolbox for software security AssuraNCE (STANCE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

The immunity of a system to malicious third parties trying to modify its behaviour (e.g. to perform unauthorized actions) is called security. Ensuring this feature in information and communication technologies is a requirement for establishing a trustworthy Information Society. Several strategies can be explored to deal with this problem. One of them, called program analysis, relies on formal tech ...

Alternative Fuels and Biofuels for Aircraft Development (ALFA-BIRD)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"ALFA-BIRD aims at developing the use of alternative fuels in aeronautics. In a context where the price of oil is increasing and with impact of fossil fuels on climate change, the sustainable growth of the civil aviation is conditioned by the respect of the environment. In this context, using biofuels and alternative fuels in aeronautics is a great challenge, since the operational constraints (e.g ...
