AIRFRAME ITD

Project description

Innovative technologies for a holistic aircraft

The European Commission and the aircraft industry envisage smart, green and integrated air transport. Airframe and aircraft concepts are instrumental for air system performances. Clean Sky 2’s Airframe Integrated Technology Demonstrator (ITD) provides innovative technologies to the European aeronautic industry that are fundamentally against the challenges of weight, life-cycle impact, cost and durability. The EU-funded Airframe ITD/GAM-2020-AIR project intends to rethink and develop the technologies as building blocks and the concept of solution space on the level of the holistic aircraft. The project will boost aerodynamics across new frontiers, combine and integrate new materials, new manufacturing methods, and structural techniques, and integrate innovative new controls and propulsion architectures with the airframe.

Objective

The Airframe ITD aims at re-thinking and developing the technologies as building blocks and the “solution space” on the level of the entire or holistic aircraft: pushing aerodynamics across new frontiers, combining and integrating new materials and structural techniques – and integrating innovative new controls and propulsion architectures with the airframe; and optimizing this against the challenges of weight, cost, life-cycle impact and durability.
