The main objective of the Framework 7 transport including aeronautics research theme is to develop “ greener”, safer and smarter pan-European transport systems in order to increase the competitiveness of European industries on the global stage and respect the environment in terms of climate change. The European Union has earmarked €4.1 billion for transport over the lifetime of the Framework 7 Programme (2007-2013).The transport theme takes a holistic approach to addressing the challenges faced by the 21st century transport sector. The Transport (including Aeronautics) theme addresses aerospace, rail, road, maritime as well as applications for GALILEO, the European Global Navigation Satellite System. The theme in general crosses a vast array of technologies as well as environmental impact and transport policy related issues.Technological opportunities arise in areas as diverse as ICT technologies both hardware and software, embedded systems, sensors, alternative fuels, security, transport logistics, human factors, satellite navigation applications and transport of the future.Other areas include social and environmental related research, the impact of transport on society (noise and road safety etc. ), transport policy, as well as the challenges in relation to climate change and the strive towards " Zero" CO2 emissions.
Areas of research
In summary, the three areas of research include:Aeronautics and Air TransportAeronautics and air transport (reduction of emissions, work on engines and alternative fuels, air traffic management, safety aspects of air transport, environmentally efficient aviation).Sustainable Surface Transport (rail, road, waterborne)Sustainable surface transport- rail, road and waterborne (development of clean and efficient engines and power trains, reducing the impact of transport on climate change, intermodal regional and national transport, clean and safe vehicles, infrastructure construction and maintenance, integrative architectures).Support to the European Global Satellite Navigation System (Galileo and EGNOS)Support to the European global satellite navigation system – Galileo and EGNOS (navigation and timing services, efficient use of satellite navigation).
