Good news from around Europe
Taking inspiration from nature, an EU-funded project is developing smart airplane wings that can sense changes in pressure and adapt their shape instantaneously. These airplanes of the future will be more energy efficient and silent: more bird-like, in effect. Powered by WPeMatico
Increase capacity, reduce fuel consumption, curb pollution? If they were based on a box-wing design, aircraft of any given wingspan could achieve more with less, say EU-funded researchers who are preparing this technology for take-off. The concept they are proposing is referred to as a ‘PrandtlPlane’. Powered by WPeMatico
An EU-funded consortium is developing technology to measure ultrafine particles in vehicle exhaust under real driving conditions, supporting the implementation of future EU emissions standards. Powered by WPeMatico
The EU will support 257 small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) from 31 countries who aim to get their innovations faster to the market. The companies have been selected in the latest round of the SME Instrument, which is part of the recently launched European Innovation Council (EIC) pilot. Powered by
ENRICH in China’s upcoming Workshop “ENRICH your Innovation and Business Potential in China” will happen on April 19th in Brussels. In this workshop you will have the opportunity to better understand the context of current R&I Cooperation between EU and China, where Competitiveness and Innovation Landscape will be discussed. The
The FABULOS consortium warmly welcomes you to the Open Market Consultation. The aim of the consultation is to gain market insight on state of the art and future developments in the field of automated mini-buses. In order to achieve this, the tender specifications need to be refined and repositioned in
The FABULOS project focuses on how cities can use self-driving minibuses in a systematic way. Six partnering cities are collectively procuring the operations of an automated bus line. Companies can receive up to 5.5 million euros to support their R&D work in developing systems capable of operating fleets of automated
EU-funded scientists hope to achieve significant resource efficiencies in the aviation sector by manufacturing lightweight components with less material. Powered by WPeMatico
EU-funded researchers are developing novel manufacturing techniques to cut the time and cost involved in producing lightweight, strong and durable components for aircraft, supporting efforts to reduce the environmental impact of aviation. Powered by WPeMatico
On the surface, ‘digitalisation’ might sound like just another trending but meaningless buzzword. But digitalisation is real and is radically changing the way we live and more specifically the way we travel. SESAR, the technological pillar of the Single Europe Sky, is working with stakeholders in the aviation value chain
