Descrizione del progetto
Sostenere la trasformazione digitale dell’aviazione europea
Il settore dell’aviazione europea deve conservare la propria competitività nell’epoca digitale. Il progetto COLOSSUS, finanziato dall’UE, fornirà una piattaforma per creare prodotti e tecnologie innovative avvalendosi di un approccio di sistema di sistemi. Istituirà un quadro collaborativo digitale trasformativo per consentire al settore aeronautico europeo di condurre ricerche, sviluppo tecnologico e innovazione. Questo quadro sosterrà la simulazione, l’analisi, l’ottimizzazione e la valutazione di prodotti e servizi complessi in scenari reali. COLOSSUS valuterà e testerà le capacità e le prestazioni del quadro collaborativo digitale trasformativo sviluppando un modello aziendale sostenibile per la mobilità intermodale in 4D e un approccio per una risposta veloce agli incendi. Il progetto presenterà inoltre studi concettuali per due prodotti volti a promuovere la mobilità multimodale e la decarbonizzazione dell’aviazione.
Obiettivo
COLOSSUS paves the way for future European aviation products and services which are designed in a truly holistic approach and to thus provide a major contribution to the digital transformation of aviation and air transportation in order to enable European competitiveness in a key industrial sector.
The expected outcomes of COLOSSUS provide Europe’s aviation sector with the platform to develop new and breakthrough product and technology in a holistic system-of-systems approach.
Main technical objectives of COLOSSUS are:
(1) To create a Transformative Digital Collaborative (TDC) Framework that allows European aviation to perform research, technology development and innovation in a holistic system-of-systems approach. The TDC Framework shall support modelling, analysis, optimisation and evaluation of complex products and services under consideration of real-world conditions.
(2) To expand and test the capabilities and performance of the TDC Framework with two Use Cases, both of which address needs identified in the Work Programme and thus possess a value of their own:
Use Case 1: Creating a business model for sustainable 4D-intermodal mobility and evaluating the concept for performance, competitiveness, environmental impact and life cycle footprint.
Use Case 2: Developing an integrated fast-response approach for preventing, detecting and fighting wildfires by combining latest developments in the fields of aircraft design and technology, automation, AI and digitalisation.
(3) To perform conceptual studies for two products which could be transverse technology enablers for multi-modal mobility and affordable decarbonisation of aviation: a multi-role seaplane with hybrid propulsion and a product for eVTOL-based advanced air mobility of passengers and goods.
