Number of awards. 1. Start date and duration. October 2019 for 4 years. Overview. Reaction Engines Ltd (REL) is a UK-based company formed in 1989 to design and develop technologies for a new class of hypersonic propulsion system – the Synergetic Air-Breathing Rocket Engine (SABRE).
The energy consumption is in the form of heat for heating systems and hot water in domestic and commercial buildings represent more than the 40% of the global energy consumption.
Number of awards. 1. Start date and duration. April 2019 or September 2019 for 4 years. Overview. The increasing amount of civil infrastructure and the ageing of existing infrastructure requires their regular inspection and maintenance.
Number of awards. 1. Start date and duration. April 2019 for 3.5 years. Overview. The transition from Distribution Network Operator (DNO) to Distribution System Operator (DSO) is a complex issue with many possible options for restructuring the distribution sector.

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are special materials with a substantial potential for various structural engineering applications. The novelty of such materials lies in their ability to undergo large deformations and return to their un-deformed shape through stress removal or heating (shape-memory effect).
This project is devoted to design, creation, and development of new multifunctional smart materials and improved performances that will underlie the technologies of the future.
Road traffics and industrial processes that are well-known as exhaust emissions producers; however, released Particulate Matter (PM) originates also from a number of non-exhaust processes, brake and tyres, involving corrosion and mechanical abrasion.
The ’Flying Train’ concept uses ground effect aerodynamics to provide a transport system with the convenience and capacity of rail but at near-flight velocities.
Smart materials are materials exhibiting multi-physics coupling behaviours. So they can be actuated by various physical fields, such as stress field, thermal field, electric field and magnetic field.
