Project Summary
April 24, 2014
The project DEMETRA will develop technologies to enable green, silent and reliable mechanical power transmissions, by targeting the crucial subsystems (gears and bearing) for the efficiency noise, levels and durability of industrial machinery.
New methods will be developed for improved virtual prediction and optimization of the full system performance as a complete coupled dynamic system, as well as improved strategies to incorporate test data in the process.
One of the aims of the European Research Area (ERA) is increasing the efficiency of industrial products and processes, yet improving quality, in key fields of energy generation and usage. The DEMETRA project directly contributes to improve quality of mechanical transmissions, widespread across the whole machinery spectrum, thus offering a technology edge to support European Industry to strengthen its competitive position in growing and globalizing markets.
