Cyanate esters are a relatively new generation of thermosetting resins that exhibit considerable tolerance in high service temperatures where the effects of moisture and micro-cracking due to thermal cycling loading are important. They exhibit low moisture absorbency, whilst retaining useful processing characteristics, e.g. cure temperatures, handling and composite processing by pre-preging or by resin transfer molding. In particular, the improvements over epoxies are good toughness, lower moisture absorption, higher glass transition temperatures at lower cure temperatures and increased resistance to micro-cracking. Consequently, cyanate ester based composites are exceptional candidate materials for parts used in aircraft or rotorcraft components that are subjected to a complex history of temperature, moisture and other environmental conditions. Nevertheless, the long-term exposure of cyanate ester based composite materials to those harsh environmental conditions and the respective degradation of their properties defined as material ageing process is not yet fully studied and understood. This aspect limits the further utilization of such materials in aeronautical applications. SPECIMEN project aims to fill this missing knowledge gap and create specific technical guidelines. Taking into account the technical requirements provided by the topic manager, SPECIMEN project will provide CSJU a complete study that will include a Material Screening Procedure, a Manufacturing Process Plan, the methodologies for studying ageing process using accelerated testing protocols, the durability performance characteristics of selected materials and a Compliance and Optimization Study for selected materials. The deeper understanding of the degradation in harsh environments using advanced material screening/testing procedures, accompanied with optimized manufacturing protocols will clarify issues concerning the inputs, outputs and nuisances during all three phases of aircraft life. Both participants that form the SPECIMEN consortium have strong background on processing-characterization of cyanate ester based materials and have extensive experience and infrastructure on ageing studies, which originates from their participation in various EC, ESA and national projects.

The overall objective of the TACOT project is to prepare the introduction and promote the use of EGNOS and GALILEO in the road transportation industry through the addition of a secure GNSS function to the Digital Tachographs (DT) which should equip more than 30 million European vehicles in the near future. There is today a clear market interest, as adding the Position, Velocity and Time (PVT) function into the tachographs will allow these devices to be considered as open vehicle platforms serving a variety of ITS applications/services, and will unlock new market opportunities for tachometer manufacturers. TACOT will allow a rapid penetration of EGNOS into the road transport sector, hence allowing EGNOS (then Galileo) to become the basis for many other applications in particular through the potential propagation to other road vehicles. In terms of measurable objectives TACOT will: • Design a secure GNSS function that can be implemented in the DT and supply trusted PVT information, • Implement it in a DT • Define a protection profile for the secure GNSS at the same level as the DT • Draft an extended DT interface specification, • Interface the extended DT to a 3rd party ITS application, to validate these concepts • Propose to standardisation bodies the secure GNSS protection profile and the extended DT interface specification • Propose a basis for an evolution of the EU regulatory framework about DT. To fulfil these objectives, The TACOT consortium is composed of 12 partners: - Actia, Continental, intellic & Stoneridge (tachograph manufacturers) - FDC, Probayes & Keynectis (design of the trusted PVT) - CertSign (trusted 3rd party) - Actia Italia (supplier of FMS solutions) - CORTE representing National Authorities - G&P a law firm specialised in the DT domain - SQUARIS a consulting firm specialised in EU legislation The TACOT project will last 24 months.

Growing NAVIS aims to consolidate the actions undertaken by the SEAGAL Project, funded in the Galileo-2007 Call, with the objective to set up a Collaboration Centre on European GNSS in South East Asia. The Centre, named NAVIS, was opened on 1st October 2010 in the premises of the Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST). While based in Vietnam, the Centre should expand its action to the whole South East Asia and in particular towards the ASEAN Member States. Growing NAVIS supports the growth of the NAVIS Collaboration Centre enhancing its technical and research capabilities and extending its links in South East Asia and Europe for a better cooperation with Europe, European institutions and possibly European companies. In fact, Growing NAVIS expands the SEAGAL consortium adding new partners from Malaysia and Germany and starting cooperation with Australian organizations. NAVIS is in a Region that will be soon exposed to a multi-GNSS environment with features that will not be available elsewhere in the world. Cooperating with NAVIS European research institutions access such interesting environment while promoting the development of the Centre with mutual benefits. The actions of the project will be carried out in South East Asia, Europe and Australia in a coordinated way. The main focus will be on South East Asia and in particular on the NAVIS Centre which has to grow in capacities and reputation. It is important to stress that funding granted through the Growing NAVIS project will be primarily oriented to the fulfillment of activities that are beneficial also for Europe such as the creation of solid links between European and ASEAN Institutions, allowing the Centre to become a “window” on South East Asia for European stakeholders. The goal of this project is to sustain the growth of NAVIS and the diffusion of European GNSS research and technology in the South East Asia Region.

GPS based systems have shortcomings for the freight and logistics sector in specific situations (limited spatial accuracy and availability in difficult environments , no information on integrity). The use with EGNOS improves spatial accuracy and furnishes integrity information, which can be further improved when used with information provided by EDAS . What still has not been tackled is the position solution when visibility of GNSS satellites is limited (e.g. in urban canyons) or completely obstructed (e.g. in tunnels). By use of dead reckoning and linking in vehicle OBU to the CAN-bus and calculate positional information, equipment and the OBU installation costs increased considerably. However, not all GNSS applications need real-time availability of positional information. In many cases it is sufficient to have this information with a time lag of a couple of minutes. Examples are: Insurance (pay per use), documentation for winter service, route controlling (e.g. for hazardous goods), cost determination for Car-Pool, car sharing, and control of usage behaviour, or calculation of CO2 Footprint. Easy-OBU steps in exactly here if the application can tolerate the position determination with a short delay for scenarios of GNSS outage, and applies an innovative filtering approach to cover blind spots and provides the necessary data for the accurate computation. In the presence of GNSS, Easy-OBU provides real time data for in car applications, in the absence this approach delivers robust navigation under very economic conditions. This saves considerable costs for the Easy-OBU hard- and software, as well as for the necessary installation of the Easy-OBU installation of the Easy-OBU into the vehicle. The use is independent of vehicle type and the open interface can be used to integrate different applications. Galileo will enhance the system by improved availability, integrity and accuracy. Easy-OBU enables the most economical solution for demanding GNSS applications.

Millions of people live with the consequences of stroke, which often include cognitive impairments. A wide gap exists between clinical rehabilitation and care, monitoring and support of patients at home to maximize independent, socially integrated living. CONTRAST will bridge this gap by developing easy-to-use auto-adaptive human-machine interfaces (HCI) which can be used in the sub-acute rehabilitation phase and further at the patients’ home. Training modules for cognitive enhancement will be tailored to the individual and remote data processing and support systems will allow for continuous monitoring of health parameters to evaluate individual progress and for shared patient-expert decision. We will develop, test, and upgrade our brain-neural-computer interface (BNCI) based neurofeedback tools, based on findings that increasing power in specific EEG frequency bands can improve long-term cognitive performance. CONTRAST targets the cognitive function of interest directly in the brain. Thus, CONTRAST will contribute to new medical and practical knowledge for guiding and improving intervention for daily life functioning after stroke. The aims of CONTRAST are the development of (1) a new architecture of HCI that is adaptive and integrates remote processing and shared decision making; (2) an accurate, individually tailored intervention for improvement of cognitive function guided by medical and neuropsychological assessment; (3) a HCI neurofeedback based cognitive enhancement training including automated reward systems to maintain patient motivation; (4) a continuous onsite and remote monitoring of health parameters and evaluation; (5) exploitation and dissemination. While these are ambitious aims, the combination of Universities, Companies, Hospitals, Rehabilitation Centres and User Groups within CONTRAST provides the experience, connections, and infrastructure necessary to have a real impact on disease management, medical knowledge, PHS, and stroke patients.
