Call for proposals under the programme of the 7th EC Framework Programme for Research, Technological Development and Demonstration Activities - Cooperation - FP7-SST-2008-TREN-1 FP7 Closed!
Objectives
The Transport theme takes a holistic “transport systems” approach in addressing the challenges, by considering the interactions of vehicles or vessels, networks or infrastructures and the use of transport services. Such an approach will necessitate the integration of new concepts, knowledge and technologies within a socio-economic and policy context. Given the different structure and focus of the sectors, the theme is divided into 3 sub-themes:
- AERONAUTICS and AIR TRANSPORT,
- SUSTAINABLE SURFACE TRANSPORT,
- GALILEO.
