MAAXIMUS - More Affordable Aircraft Cycle

Fast development and a right-first-time validation of a highly optimised new generation composite fuselage. MAAXIMUS will be split in a virtual structure platform focussing on a higher prediction accuracy, higher confidence and process performance of the simulation. The second platform is a physical demonstrator building on a full scale composite fuselage barrel applying new and smart materials, new design concepts, advanced manufacturing processes and structural and systems integration.

SCARLETT - Scalable and Reconfigurable Electronics Platforms and Tools

Develop a new generation of electronics platforms encompassing both the avionics and open world. SCARLETT will define, implement and validate a new electronics platform architecture with fault tolerant, robust and safe configuration and re-configuration capabilities. New component technologies including COTS will be investigated. Representative applications will be used to demonstrate the new properties.

COMNET - Network Centric Communications

Define and validate an advanced and coherent aircraft communication system as part of a new global air transport communication network overcoming the existing fragmented communication network. The expected outcome is a validated aircraft integrated communications system for Air Traffic Management, airlines operations, security services and Cabin Crew Operations.

AERO-NDE - Structural Non-Destructive Evalution

Drive the development of inspection technologies across a wide range of NDT technologies to provide industrial prototype inspection methods and systems that can meet the challenge of accurate, rapid and local inspection on complex parts in the new and used condition.

In parallel a pan European Aero NDT technology platform will be created.

HIRF-EMC - Electro-Magnetic Compatibility Modelling

Increase the confidence level on electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) design and testing for air vehicles, fixed wing and rotorcraft, system installation and airworthiness certification. A synthetic environment simulation framework is set up to evaluate in the early stages of the design, the impact of structural modifications, and installation of equipment and configuration changes relevant to EMC aspects.
