• VILD — Virtual Integrated soLutions for future Demonstrators and products

  This project continues the development of a future engine concept where focus is on increased electrification, engine weight reduction and overall noise reduction. The impact of new technologies on the aircraft engine architecture is studied and quantified to better understand the associated challenges. The virtual platform that will be developed further in the project has previously been shown to promote technical collaboration, research and information exchange between academia and industry in Sweden. The project will facilitate the development of methods for aircraft engine component designs targeting improved engine performance and increased overall efficiency.

• VIFT — Virtual Integrated Fan and Turbine

  The focus of the VIFT project is on the reduction of noise from modern efficient aero engines and the continued development of a virtual demonstrator environment aimed at turbomachinery studies. The virtual platform that will be developed further in the project has previously been shown to promote technical collaboration, research and information exchange between academia and industry in Sweden. The VIFT project will facilitate the development of methods for aircraft engine noise evaluation and innovative component designs targeting improved engine performance and increased overall efficiency.

• DARLING — Damaged and Repaired Blade Modeling with in-situ Experiments

  The project focuses on aerodynamic and aeromechanical evaluation and detection of degraded and damaged fan- and compressor blades, as well as repair actions, in modern aero engines. The project is coordinated by GKN Aerospace AB and continues an established collaboration between GKN, KTH and Stuttgart University, Germany. The collaboration with Stuttgart University allows Swedish partners access to advanced European experimental infrastructure in aerospace engineering which does not exist in Sweden.
