Cel Aviation has dramatically transformed society over the past 100 years. Fast and efficient transportation has essentially been “shrinking the planet” and changing the landscape in terms of financial and societal conditions. The growth of air traffic over the past 50 years has been spectacular, and will continue in the future. This anticipated growth carries along challenges and opportunities in various aspects of life, from economics to the environment. Research must meet these emerging challenges by producing concepts and breakthrough technological achievements in air transport.Currently, one of the most challenging areas of aeronautical research is the air-vehicle itself, mainly in what concerns its form and operation. Passenger aircrafts have kept more or less the same basic design since the 40's. Several improvements have been introduced since then (composite materials for the main load bearing structure of the aircraft eg A350, B787) but none of them had altered the basic form of the aircraft or its main operation and handling.For the air-transport of the future several pioneering ideas meant for introducing radical changes in the air-transport system have been proposed, requiring several innovations and individual technical challenges to be met towards their implementation. An idea to be investigated within the frame of the proposed project is the design of the aircraft as a combination of a “carrier” and a “passenger pod”. The benefits from such a concept are multiple.- Inter-modal passenger transport.- Increased flexibility in aircraft configuration and fleet management.- Distributed airport facilities- Faster and easier passenger loading- Evacuation of the aircraft in case of an emergency Dziedzina nauki engineering and technologymaterials engineeringcompositessocial scienceseconomics and businesseconomicsengineering and technologymechanical engineeringvehicle engineeringaerospace engineeringaircraftnatural sciencesphysical sciencesastronomyplanetary sciencesplanetsengineering and technologycivil engineeringtransportation engineeringairport engineering Program(-y) FP7-TRANSPORT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Transport (including Aeronautics) Temat(-y) AAT.2012.6.3-1. - Breakthrough and emerging technologies AAT.2012.6.3-2. - Radical new concepts for air transport Zaproszenie do składania wniosków FP7-AAT-2012-RTD-L0 Zobacz inne projekty w ramach tego zaproszenia System finansowania CP-FP - Small or medium-scale focused research project Koordynator PANEPISTIMIO PATRON Wkład UE € 241 600,00 Adres UNIVERSITY CAMPUS RIO PATRAS 265 04 Rio Patras Grecja Zobacz na mapie Region Κεντρική Ελλάδα Δυτική Ελλάδα Αχαΐα Rodzaj działalności Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Kontakt administracyjny Vassilis Kostopoulos (Prof.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Strona internetowa Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych Uczestnicy (3) Sortuj alfabetycznie Sortuj według wkładu UE Rozwiń wszystko Zwiń wszystko INASCO HELLAS ETAIREIA EFARMOSMENON AERODIASTIMIKON EPISTIMON EE Grecja Wkład UE € 98 900,00 Adres NAPOLEONTOS ZERVA 18 16675 Glyfada Athina Zobacz na mapie Region Αττική Aττική Νότιος Τομέας Αθηνών Rodzaj działalności Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Kontakt administracyjny Dimitri Bofilios (Dr.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Strona internetowa Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych PIAGGIO AERO INDUSTRIES SPA Włochy Wkład UE € 33 350,00 Adres LARGO ANGELO FOCHETTI 29 00185 Roma Zobacz na mapie Region Centro (IT) Lazio Roma Rodzaj działalności Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Kontakt administracyjny Alessandro Morando (Mr.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Strona internetowa Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych STICHTING KONINKLIJK NEDERLANDS LUCHT - EN RUIMTEVAARTCENTRUM Niderlandy Wkład UE € 186 900,00 Adres ANTHONY FOKKERWEG 2 1059 CM Amsterdam Zobacz na mapie Region West-Nederland Noord-Holland Groot-Amsterdam Rodzaj działalności Research Organisations Kontakt administracyjny Antonios Kanakis (Dr.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Strona internetowa Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych
