In the scope of the MAMA research project, IRT Saint Exupéry and RECAERO companies respectively located in Toulouse and Pamiers (France) tackled such challenges through the manufacturing of a bracket for the Airbus’s “Beluga” super-transporter (A300-600ST).
End of the “CMC en service” project around the development of a test bench for ceramic matrix composite materials.
This October 2022, the CMC en Service project ended after four years of research and development around a test bench (the flame bench) allowing advances in composite materials with ceramic matrix testing.
MAMA project: 30% raw material savings for titanium aerostructure parts
On April 21st, 2022, IRT Saint Exupéry held a press conference on the MAMA project (Metallic Advanced Materials for Aeronautics). During this occasion, IRT Saint Exupéry and the members of the project had the occasion to share and discuss about the technological and scientific advances of a project that will contribute to the reinforcement and…
ANDDURO project results: from the demonstration part to the critical one.
Since 2016, the IRT Saint Exupéry has been working in close collaboration with 15 industrial members and 4 academic members on establishing links between mechanical performance, microstructures, and parameters of metal additive manufacturing processes, with a view to their wider industrial use in the aeronautics and space sectors. The research work carried out within the…
5GMED Project : innovation, connectivity, challenge.
After a year and a half, discussions between the 21 partners have led to the definition of use cases with their associated services, targeted performances and the necessary infrastructure. The 5GMED project team continues to work on the development of the infrastructure and components that will allow to test the defined services on the corridor.…
METEOR Project: a technological breakthrough in the production of high-performance thermoplastic prepregs and composites.
After 3 years of research and tests, the scientific team of the IRT Saint Exupéry and the members of the METEOR project (coMpEtitive ThErmOplastic pRepreg) have completed a project that plays a very important role in the optimization of prepregs based on high-performance thermoplastics carbon fibers and resin. THE PROJECT METEOR’s mission was to develop…
SiCRET Project, at the heart of the Energy Transition
After a year and a half of activities, the SiCRET (SiC (MOSFET) Reliability Evaluation for Transport) project Team continues its studies on the reliability of Silicon Carbide power electronic devices. At the heart of the electric mobility transition, this project aims to enable the deployment of “dependable” MOSFET SiC technology in the transportation sector. THE…
Two premieres in Artificial Intelligence on-board satellites
Congratulations to the CIAR project for two space premieres:– Remotely updating, from a ground station, an artificial neural network embedded on a satellite.– Running this neural network on a FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) in orbit. The CIAR project (Chaîne Image Autonome et Réactive / / Responsive and Autonomous Imaging Chain) is studying technologies to deploy…
Call of expressions of interest : PREDICAT, multi environmental coupled platform
The prospects for a greener aircraft therefore, electric and / or hybrid necessitate an increase in the nominal voltage in order to limit the overall mass of the cables. This rise in voltage, beyond kV, impacts the electrical components and their reliability. The more electric or hybrid aircraft of the future will require the use…
