The general objective of the TIANA project is to approach the research of disruptive solutions of the components of aircraft structures based on intelligent, automated and high-rate manufacturing technologies and the use of new materials with improved functionalities that allow the obtaining of more integrated and lighter structures, contributing to a significant reduction in both the consumption and weight of the aircraft as a whole. as well as recycling technologies that improve the carbon footprint and ensure the circular economy. On the other hand, the project addresses the research of architectures adapted to new zero-emission auxiliary power systems with H2.
This project also aims to ensure the sustainability of the manufacturing processes and the aircraft themselves, seeking to reduce the environmental impact thanks to the reduction of energy consumption compared to current processes, the reduction of waste generated, the recycling/reuse of waste and the use of composite materials from renewable sources.
This project is funded by the Ministry of Science and Innovation and “Subsidized by the CDTI”.
