Project 1

JTI-CS2-2016-CFP04-FRC-02-18 - Full Fairing for Main Rotor Head or the LifeRCraft demonstrator

Leading entity

National Aerospace University “KhAI”

Required partners

Industry or SME specialized in composite structures production (for reference aeronautical companies) to be responsible for production and blank assembly of the main rotor head full fairing parts with a proven manufacturing technologies (TRL4-6).

Mandatory requirements to the partner: availability of Quality System international standards (i.e. EN 9100:2009/ ISO 9001:2008/ ISO 14001:2004). Availability of Product Organization Approvals (POA) is appreciated.

The full list of requirements is available in the Topic description.

Comments

Within planned project KhAI will lead conceptual and detailed design of the main rotor head fairing and will develop and test a new concept for partial air sealing of mobile parts of the fairing.

Our research team has long-term experience in composites (incl. performances improvement, innovative design/simulation/testing of complex structures, manufacturing process development). We also have experience in EU-funded aeronautic collaborative R&D projects (FP6, FP7).

Project 2

JTI-CS2-2016-CFP04-AIR-02-31 - Numerical methodologies and related tools for effect of defect prediction in manufacturing

Leading entity

National Aerospace University “KhAI”

Required partners

SME (preferably) or Research Entity to be responsible for development, validation and demonstration of Abaqus add-in based on the models, approaches and codes to be previously developed by KhAI. Skills and competencies required from partner:

·  Extended experience with the commercial finite element code Abaqus

·  Experience in Abaqus add-ins development

·  Sufficient Abaqus licenses to run large model (>3 million elements)

·  High Performance Computing resources to ensure that large model (>3 million elements) can be investigated

Comments

We have an idea how to efficiently combine numerical simulation, analytical modelling and probabilistic estimates and to realize Abaqus add-in (Toolkit) to be used for numerical analysis of aerostructures with account for mechanical variability caused by manufacturing defects.

Leading entity

RWTH Aachen University

Required partners

-  A partner who is familiar with synthetic turbulence formulations such as RPM.

-  A partner or partners in the field wall models (for LES) and reduced order models for the complete open rotor setup.
