Prediction of Electromagnetic fields (PEM)

Objective

The ever-increasing proliferation of all kinds of (wired and wireless) electronic equipment in every aspect of human life requires careful design and engineering methodologies to assure proper functioning of products and systems in their operational environment. Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is one of the main factors resulting in lack of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). EMC is often seen as just an additional aspect of design and engineering, although interest is more or less related to the number of disasters caused by EMI such as failure of critical electronic devices.

The above- mentioned problems and issues present in future industrial (security) applications can only be solved with the aid of fundamental scientific knowledge. Therefore the aim of this project is to create a strategic and durable intersectoral partnership in the field of EMC between Thales (a leading global high-tech company) and three renowned European universities in Nottingham (UK), Torino (Italy) and Split (Croatia). The four participating organisations will transfer already available knowledge and set up joint research activities in order to jointly gain new fundamental knowledge on the behaviour of electromagnetic fields in enclosures.

The research topic of the project is expected to lead to less interference by electromagnetic fields reducing health and safety risks, and improve European competitiveness. Various transfer of knowledge activities are envisioned, such as numerous visits resulting in joint research projects, training sessions, and meetings.
