AIRlabs Austria - Aeronautical Innovation & Research Laboratories Austria
The BMK innovation lab AIRlabs Austria plans to establish and operate a multisite test infrastructure to support research, development, validation and integration UAS. With a total of 25 consortium partners from the fields of users, industrial companies and research institutions, the necessary test enablers for UAS will be provided along all TRLs and along the innovation path. Even though the focus of the innovation lab is on airspaces, ground-based infrastructures are also part of AIRlabs Austria's offering. The advantages of Austria's location (e.g. (high) alpine areas) as well as the interests of domestic industry and scientific partners are taken into account.
Aviation Icing Tests IV - Cloud Generation for Realistic Icing Tests on Aircraft Components, With and Without De-Icing or Anti-Icing Facilities
this research project will examine consequent research topics with a focus on increasing the LWC (Liquid Water Content) for Appendix C as well as the distribution and reduction of the LWC for Supercooled Large Drops (SLD). It is building on research projects Aviation Icing Tests, Aviation Icing Tests II and Aviation Icing Tests III that have already been carried out.
BISANCE - BIphasic System integrated in the Airframe of a NaCElle
The project intends to test in icing wind tunnel (IWT) one demonstrator of engine air intake integrated in a nacelle and equipped with an innovative biphasic heat transport system for regenerating the energy from the oil of the engine. The objective, by testing the technology in a representative environment, is to reach TRL5. At the end of the project the technology will be able to be further developed towards TRL6 to 9 with the final aim to be transferred to the aeronautic value chain.
DARVIS - Data Fusion of K/X Band Radar with Visual Sensors for Airborne Platforms
Various sensor technologies in aviation have so far insufficiently combined the respective complementary properties. The optimal fusion as well as the respective characteristics of the sensors are to be optimally used in the future. The different methods for calibration and synchronization will be investigated and optimized. The results will then be incorporated into a sensor technology model for collision avoidance in aviation.
Evolution#4 - Development of a fully automated airplane manufacturing technology and implementation of IoT
In Evolution#4 an approach for the 4th industrial revolution will be addressed by bringing the production of aeronautical structures to a fully automated RTM process. In an holistic approach with leading specialists from Airbus the Austrian consortium will develop intelligent, sensor-based and quality driven production technology and prepare for coming project on the example of the A320 vertical tail plane.
Hairmate - Hybrid Aircraft Seating Manufacturing and Testing
HAIRMATE project aims to design and manufacture moulds for manufacturing and testing the next generation aircraft seating obtained in the HAIRD project. Within the HAIRD project a new seating with reduction of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) risk, multi-functionality and simple surfaces for composite manufacturing was designed. The moulds to manufacture the structural parts will be manufactured.
ICE GENESIS - Creating the Next Generation of 3D Simulation Means for Icing
The top level objective of the ICE GENESIS project is to provide the European aeronautical industry with a validated new generation of 3D icing engineering tools (numerical simulation and test capabilities), addressing App C, O and snow conditions, for safe, efficient and cost effective design and certification of future aircraft and rotorcraft.
I³PS - Integration of Innovative Ice Protection Systems
The project goal is to economically remove ice accreting on aircraft structure critical parts and thus increase reliability and mass saving on the global function. By comparison with the present existing solutions which are based on active pneumatic and electro-thermal means the targeted solutions will enable electrical power consumption, cost and mass reductions and ease the overall integration process.
ROPA - Radar Optical Piloted Aircraft
In order to ensure increased safety in flight, ROPA's research work is dedicated to the investigation and data fusion of various optical, infrared and radar sensor methods and procedures. The focus is on the identification of potential conflicts and strategies for collision avoidance as well as the integration and evaluation of the technology in an aircraft according to the EASA CS23 category.
