Boltless assembling Of Primary Aerospace Composite Structures (BOPACS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,
"The main challenge of the BOPACS project is to reduce the weight and costs of primary aerospace structures by developing bolt free adhesive bonded joints that comply with the airworthiness requirements.Until today thin walled composite primary aerospace structures are joined by using a large number of fasteners. Bolt free joining would considerably contribute to the weight and cost reduction of a ...

Cost Effective Reinforcement of Fastener Areas in Composites (CERFAC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
"CERFAC’s major challenge is the design and manufacturing of strong and cost-efficient joints for high performance CFRP aero-structures.In particular, transfer of distributed loading along rivets lines in the assembly of flat or curved thin-walled stiffened panels, and introduction of concentrated loads for connecting lugs with thicker laminates are special & frequent problems. Hence, CERFAC focus ...

European Levitated Spherical Actuator (ELSA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
"The ELSA project has the goal of improving European capacity to independently manufacture commercial and scientific satellites by bringing a new actuator for attitude and orbit control systems to a higher level of maturity. This goal is in line with ESA’s technology strategy and long term plan. Support for initial development activities for this innovative actuator technology was provided within ...

Industrialization of Manufacturing Technologies for Composite Profiles for Aerospace Applications (IMac-Pro)
Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
Main aim of the project is the development of a complete, integrated process chain for the cost effective serial production of various aerospace CFRP stiffener profiles. The production is foreseen in the two steps: Preform manufacturing and infiltration / curing. The project will focus on complex profile geometries with variable cross sections, single or multiple curvature and integrated load int ...
