FLAMINGo will demonstrate that the developed materials follow the current and forthcoming ELV directives and will not pose any threat to current recycling practices, but on the contrary, exploit their proven effectiveness. The assessment of the cradle-to-cradle life cycle of […]
Widespread deployment of procedures to ensure structural integrity and safety of components made of advanced light materials while promoting their efficient repair and reuse through in-service health-monitoring and inspection The possibility to apply NDT quality control to structural parts has […]
Ensure a short lead time, by deep integration of combined material modeling into the value chain of product development and manufacturing, for the introduction of lightweight components in the market. FLAMINGo will have a real competitive advantage over technologies based […]
FLAMINGo targets vehicle weight reduction improving properties of existing aluminium, hence requiring less bulk material for the same mechanical effect and competing with steel for a lot more components, thanks to the increased specific modulus. Further 10% of weight reduction […]
The European Aluminium Association has published an issue about Aluminum use in the automotive sector and the connection with the reduction of the vehicle’s weight. Aluminium can reduce the mass of the vehicle and contribute to life-cycle CO2 savings. Moreover, […]
