Abstract:

The main objective of the project is the development of an intelligent electronic system to assist the tram driver by using the detection of vehicles rolling in the front direction in order to prevent and reduce the danger of tram collision.

The system to be developed has the hardware and software component and uses the experience gained when implementing in the institute a similar project to measure the tram wheel profile, an experimental model called "Electronic equipment for scanning geometric profiles" that uses the same operating principle.

The system is very useful in preventing accidents involving trams, which, especially under the current conditions of traffic, cannot simultaneously respect the minimum distances and the traffic schedule. At the same time, the proposed system is efficient and in low visibility conditions, such as passages.

The detection of the tram speed and the signal of over-speeding is an additional feature that allows to increase the road safety.

Each of the partners has a well-defined purpose, the institute realizes the hardware, software (the basic part), considering its connection in the tram's electrical scheme, and the university refines the software and performs tests and simulations.

Abstract:

In the construction domain, the energy represents the key-point in achieving efficient buildings.

The project proposes the improvement or institutional performances between three universities and two research institutes for the revival of the research activities and transfer of knowledge between partners.

The 4 proposed projects, centred on the efficient energy buildings, are focused on two principal research directions: (i) use of smart facades with low-thermal transfer, actively integrated for the enhancement of internal comfort and possessing a passive control of energy (by using the solar energy) and (ii) smart energy efficiency through building automatization and solar energy collectors. The resulted system, the smart house, is conceived thus to minimize the input energy for maintenance.

The Project 1 has as main objective the determination of mechanical properties of cellular materials used as thermal insulations in smart façade systems, through mechanical compression, bending and toughness fracture testing of such cellular materials.

Project 2 is focused on obtaining, characterizing and testing of high-property materials used for smart facades as thermal insulation materials and as support for special property layers: photo-catalytic layers and with reduced absorption/reflexion of UV-VIS-IR radiation.

The Project 3 has as main objective the theoretical and experimental investigation of the implementation of the electric power distribution in direct current for individual households or in small communities (smart-grid), with renewable energy sources integration.

The scope of the Project 4 is to implement the knowledge and data resulted from projects no. 1-3 through a modular laboratory demonstrative application. The project will perform an integrated study on the influence of the facades and the energetic contribution to the internal comfort of the building by considering different façade systems and respectively by integrating a smart-grid energy system.

Abstract:

This Complex Project is part of the National Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation 2014-2020 in the field of intelligent specialization Energy, Environment and Climate Change, on optimal use of conventional and unconventional water resources and in the National Strategy for Sustainable Development of Romania Horizons 2013- 2020-2030 on anticipating the effects of climate change and developing early crisis plans for natural or anthropic phenomena. Some areas with endemic drought tend to be affected by aridation (deepwater level) and even desertification (vegetative carpet disappearance and soil degradation). In southern Dolj county there are approx. 105.000 hectares covered by sand dunes, the area being called "Sahara Olteniei". The purpose of the Complex Project is to increase the institutional performance of research - development - innovation in the field of innovative technologies for irrigation in arid, semiarid and sub - dry climates, by using and developing the research infrastructure of the consortium partners. Consortium consist of 8 public research organizations: INMA, ICPE-CA, INCDPM, INOE 2000-IHP, UPB, USAMV, CCDCPN Dabuleni and SCDP Constanta. The expected results of the complex project are: 13 new research jobs; 7 national patent applications; The realization and transfer in the economic environment of 6 new products, 1 significantly improved product, 3 new technologies, 1 improved technology and 3 new research services; The research services offer for A1 and A2 checks presented on the Erris platform; Internships for young researchers and work visits for experienced researchers B-type; Training the new human resource engaged in C checks; Joint RDI program in the field of irrigation intelligent technologies, correlated with the institutional development plan of each partner.

Abstract:

Having as common focus the innovative developments in renewable energy, the project consortium brings together university, academic and scientific research organizations whose objectives converge towards performance improvement by supporting existing institutional research capabilities. The project aims to optimize renewable energy production facilities and to develop functional models which will ensure electric power supply with integrated natural sources, especially in disadvantaged areas, by applying new and emerging technologies. Starting from the complex electricity generation systems, which are patented/in process of being patented at national level, and with the contribution of the coordinator and the partner institutions that will develop the component projects, the integrated generation-supply assemblies will be validated under relevant operating conditions. Within the project the complementary partnership for innovation is promoted, the members having a well-defined role within the consortium, each contributing to the significant optimization of the complex systems for renewable energy production in both coastal areas and for flowing waters, improvement of hydrogenerators, and realization of pilot models for demonstration and provision of thermal and electrical energy. This project provides the necessary support to strengthen the scientific and technical competencies through the correlation and coordination of activities and resources within public research organizations and the capitalization of these competences through research results provided to the socio-economic field. The project implementation leads to the improvement of research infrastructure at the consortium level and to the reinforcement of institutions capacity through the formation and involvement of the newly employed human resource, in order to acquire new knowledge in the field of innovative technologies for energy production from renewable resources in integrated complex installations.
