Summary
This topic focuses on the competitiveness and digital transformation in aviation and the further advancement of composite aerostructures.
Detailed Call Description
The proposal is expected to develop further advanced composite design and manufacturing technologies that have potential to contribute to the digital transformation of the European aircraft supply chain.
The proposal is expected to give emphasis to cost-competitive and sustainable manufacturing, characterisation, maintenance and end-of-life solutions of composite aerostructures. Composite multifunctional and multi-material innovations that result from closer aerostructures-systems-propulsion integration are expected to be addressed.
All developed advanced composite technologies should be scale-demonstrated in relevant challenging industrial cases.
The retained proposals, should, during the implementation phase, regularly exchange information with the Technical Committee of the Clean Aviation partnership.
