Coordination Action Pro “Production, Avionics, Design” on Cost-efficiency in Aeronautics (CAPPADOCIA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
The Advisory Council for Aeronautics Research in Europe is the European Technology Platform for Aeronautics and Air Transport (AAT) that provides guidance for the future of the European aeronautics research. ACARE previous roadmap, the Strategic Research Agenda, was highly of inspiration for EC work programme elaboration on Aeronautics and Aviation. In 2011 the European Commission published the Fl ...

High Altitude Ice Crystals (HAIC)
Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
Commercial aircraft have been experiencing in-service events while flying in the vicinity of deep convective clouds since at least the early 1990s. Heated probes and engines are the areas of air-craft most prone to mixed phase and glaciated icing threat. In anticipation of regulation changes regarding mixed phase and glaciated icing conditions, the HAIC project will provide the necessary Acceptabl ...

More Affordable Aircraft structure through eXtended, Integrated, and Mature nUmerical Sizing (MAAXIMUS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
Even though composite materials are more and more used in modern airframes, many significant improvements are still achievable. Firstly, the substitution of the assembly of many small composite parts by a single one-shot large part provides additional weight reduction. Secondly, the final assembly line process must be adapted to composite properties (lack of ductility, stiffness). Thirdly, if the ...

LOw COst Manufacturing and Assembly of Composite and Hybrid Structures (LOCOMACHS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
The continued use of composite materials in the aerospace industry has been addressed in several past research projects which have focused on new design solutions and composite manufacturing processes. However an area which has been given much less attention up until now is how to achieve a time and cost effective lean assembly production system. The current airframe assembly process of composite ...

Advanced Cockpit for Reduction Of StreSs and workload (ACROSS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
Outstanding safety level of air transport is partly due to the two pilots standard. However situations where difficult flight conditions, system failures or cockpit crew incapacitation lead to peak workload conditions.The amount of information and actions to process may then exceed the crew capacity. Systems alleviating crew workload would improve safety.ACROSS Advanced Cockpit for Reduction of St ...
