| Project Detail |
Expert training for reduced vehicle emissions Reducing emissions and pollution in all aspects of daily life is high on the EU’s agenda. Road transport is also complying with strict emissions regulations, paving the way with electric vehicles (EVs), internal combustion engines and hybrids eco-powertrains. However, there is an urgent need to test and simulate several complex challenges related to performance. The EU-funded ECO DRIVE project will train a new generation of experts to address the complex challenges related to combustion noise, the irritating sound from electric motors, transmission-induced NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) and driveline torsional vibrations, leading to new designs with improved eco-efficiency and performance. The project has nine beneficiaries from leading academic institutions, top research centres and Europe’s premier vehicle producers. |
