Scope:
This Topic is addressed to the improvement of advanced technologies and methodologies coming from the Clean Sky - GRA ITD, FP7 MAAXIMUS, FP7 SARISTU with the aim to make them ready for the industrialization phase of a new regional aircraft fuselage.All proposed methodologies and technologies shall be validated by the building block approach, from the coupon level up to fuselage sub-component level (real scale flat and curved panels) through element level (details representative of skin/stringers, fittings, aft. pressure bulkhead, window frames, floor structure). The main expected outcome of this Topic shall consist of matured methodologies and technologies to be integrated in the full-scale fuselage demonstrator within the WP 3.2 of Regional Aircraft IADP.
The activities to be performed by the Core Partner(s) are in the following 2 linked areas:
• Development of advanced methodologies and technologies for maintenance, repair, non-destructive inspection and structural health monitoring; • Fuselage components design, manufacturing and testing for verification and validation of new methodologies and technologies.Please refer for the full and formal topic description to Annex I of the Clean Sky 2 Work Plan 2014-2015 (see under the tab "Topic Conditions and Documents")
