Project short Description
Despite technological challenges to be overcome (among which electromagnetic
protection), composites remain the future of the aviation industry.

Electromagnetic threat sources: More and more powerful with large frequency spectrum
Electronic and electrical Systems more complex and more sensitive to electromagnetic energy (HIRF,
.Lightning, LIRF,ESD)
Tests in laboratory too restrictive and expensive
Thus the need for simulation based on physics with adequate tools to support aircraft design and certification

►
►
Different components for the automotive sector have been
developed using cast in place in standard casting processes.
Transfer of this methodology and adaptation to Metal Injection
Moulding (MIM) to produce aeronautic parts by using intermediate
layers by means of PVD, CVD, HVOF, SLM, chemically or
electrolitically deposited coatings.
The combination of these technologies allow the development of
parts with high dimensional and mechanical properties
requirements.
Higher performance of hybrid components together with significant
possibilities weight reduction is the main considered impact.

Project Hi-Fi
Project short Description
► Advance the Technology Readiness Level of the FV-Meshless
method from about 3 to 6 for aeronautics.
► Improve current standard second-order industrial codes by
increasing its accuracy, keeping in use the current codes.
► Apply the higher-order FV-Meshless framework to complex real
flows.

Significant progress in FV-Meshless methods as new and enhanced
methods in design to enable advanced and novel aircraft
configurations;
Improvement of FV-Meshless in terms of memory storage and
computing time. Special attention will be given to parallelization using
Graphic Processing Units (GPU’s).
Development of high-order techniques for problems with moving
boundaries and application to fluid-structure interaction.
Successful demonstration of the potential and capabilities of FVMeshless methods in industrially relevant test cases;
Assessment of the developed techniques through the validation of real
test cases, including turbulent flows.
Assessment of the developed techniques for multi-physics problems
such as aeroacoustics and cavitation.

EMBEDDED SOLUTION FOR STRUCTURAL HEALTH
MONITORING OF AEROSPACE STRUCTURES USING
GUIDED WAVES AND PIEZOCERAMIC ARRAYS
Project short Description
►
The existing Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) commercial solutions are still
limited in terms of integration, robustness and detection capabilities for
realistic aerospace structures. The proposed project aims at providing solutions
for integration of a SHM system based on guided waves by addressing the
sensing, data processing, data interpretation for realistic implementation of a
SHM system.
