More Affordable Aircraft structure through eXtended, Integrated, and Mature nUmerical Sizing (MAAXIMUS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 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 ...

Novel Air Vehicles Configurations: From Fluttering Wings to Morphing Flight (NOVEMOR)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2011, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
The aim of the NOVEMOR (NOvel Air VEhicle Configurations: From Fluttering Wings to MORphing Flight) research project is to investigate novel air vehicle configurations with new lifting concepts and morphing wing solutions to enable cost-effective air transportation. A multidisciplinary analysis and design optimization environment developed in an earlier EU Project (SIMSAC) will be used and improve ...

Cost Effective Reinforcement of Fastener Areas in Composites (CERFAC)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 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 ...

Large Deployable Technologies for Space (DEPLOYTECH)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
"Large deployable structures are needed as the backbone and as an integral part of large reflectors, Earth observation antennas, radiators, sun shields and solar arrays. In addition to providing a deployment function, the large space deployable structures can provide shape and stability for a spacecraft throughout its mission. Deployable structures have the capability of reducing mass substantiall ...

De-Orbiting of Satellites using Solar Sails (DEORBIT SAIL)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
The goal of this project is to develop and flight test a novel, low cost/riskdeorbiting device based on a 25-m squared Solar Sail with a total mass (including the satellite platform) of 3 kg. The approach will be to modify Solar Sail deployment technology for use as a satellite and/or rocket upper stage deorbiting system. The effectiveness of such deorbiting device is predicted to be high at altit ...

Dynamics in Aircraft Engineering Design and Analysis for Light Optimized Structures (DAEDALOS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2014,
"Today’s design and certification procedures of aircrafts are mainly based on conservative static loading which leads to additional weight and, potentially, to a structurally unsafe aircraft. The overall objective of the DAEDALOS project is to develop methods and procedures to determine dynamical loads considering the effects of dynamic buckling, material damping and mechanical hysteresis during a ...

Industrialization of Manufacturing Technologies for Composite Profiles for Aerospace Applications (IMac-Pro)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 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 ...

Generic Linking of Finite Element based Models (glFEM)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2012,
"AREA 7.1.4.1 aims to ensure cost efficiency in air transport focussing on reduction of aircraft acquisition costs. Innovative solutions and technologies must result in lower lead time and costs of the aircraft from design to production, with a more competitive supply chain. The current proposal relates to topic AAT2008.4.1.1: ""Design Systems and Tools"". For this topic it is stated in the Work ...

AIRCRAFT INTEGRATED STRUCTURAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT II (AISHA II)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2011,
"The safe use of complex engineering structures such as aircrafts can only be guaranteed when efficient means of damage assessment are in place. Whereas the design of civil structures is nowadays based on a damage tolerance approach and time based inspection cycles, it is envisaged that the large cost associated with this approach can be drastically reduced by switching to a condition based mainte ...
