DEVELOPMENT OF SMART AND FLEXIBLE FREIGHT WAGONS AND FACILITIES FOR IMPROVED TRANSPORT OF GRANULAR MULTIMATERIALS. (HERMES)

CORDIS provides links to public deliverables and publications of HORIZON projects.

Links to deliverables and publications from FP7 projects, as well as links to some specific result types such as dataset and software, are dynamically retrieved from OpenAIRE .

Deliverables

Non-confidential project report for further public dissemination

This deliverable will consist in a report nonconfidential with the outmost results of the project for public dissemination

Conclusions and recommendations report of which wagon components can be manufactured using composites

It will contain FRP properties and design considerations as well as recommended joining techniques

Electronic project brochure completed and available for distribution

This deliverable will describe the method and results of the electronic project brochure in PDF format at the beginning of the project No problems or deviations expected as it will be prepared with information already available in the proposal The original brochure will be attached to report

Final dissemination brochure completed and available for distribution

Electronic project Brochure PDF at the end of the project to present the results In the event that any of the desired results are not achieved the brochure will also be published containing the results successfully achieved The original brochure will be attached to report

Material design requirements for wagon components with AHSS

It will describe the mechanical requirements in different wagons components and the proper design procedures to get benefit from the high strength of AHSS in lightweight design

Final recommendations for wagon and loading and unloading designs based on numerical simulation results

Based on the results obtained in numerical simulations this deliverable presents the final recommendations on the project designs of wagon and loading and unloading facilities

Validation of models

Validation of the numerical mode for flow behaviour is important for trusting the results from the model It also gives a number of the accuracy of the numerical predictions

Operation model in real-time video

Report describing the method and results of the video walkthrough showing final loading and unloading operationsThis deliverable depends on the achievement of many others so the main difficulty will be displaying all this information in a condensed lapse of time Moreover including the numerical model cases developed within WP4 and all the studied cases into the video is challenging However even potential deviations might occur in this part of the animation the timing of the process will be exact as it will be cargo volumes and movements of all the involved parts of the system Therefore the resultant visualization will show an almost real scenario with an enormous utility for dissemination activities

Characterisation of surface tension and friction coefficient of already existing paint products in the market

It will describe the test method and procedure used and it will present a list of the results of surface tension and friction coefficient values obtained in the tests carried out with commercial paints

Communication Plan

This delivery will be updated every 6 months it will list the communication actions foreseen for the 6 months period

Conclusions and recommendation report of structural parts to be manufactured by AHSS

It will contain material selection and the recommended joining technologies It will also describe the testing methodologies to get material certification from administration

Website and intranet

This deliverable will describe the website created for HERMES and the intranet in which only partners of the project will have accessThe platform for the website will be created by CTM The website will be updated with significant developments during the project and the relevant nonconfidential information and results will be made available on it It will also have a private intranet that will be used for the management of the consortium minutes deliverables etc The link to the website will be attached to the report

Characterisation of the materials and calibration of the constitutive model

The first delivery gives the fundamental step to calibrate constitutive models for granular flow behaviour from characterisation data
