PLEIADES EC Clean Sky 2

Start date

End date

Overview

University of Surrey sustainability system analysis researchers from the Centre for Environment and Sustainability - Dr Jacquetta Lee, Dr Xaiobo Chen and Professor Richard Murphy - have recently completed a four year innovative project looking at the next generation of Eco-Design in the Aerospace sector.

The Surrey research formed part of the PLEIADES consortium project funded by the Clean Sky 2 Public Private Partnership between the European Commission and the European aeronautics industry. Our contribution to this excellent project was the development of a novel tool targeting data uncertainty and sensitivity to enable greater efficiency in key data acquisition, speed, and overall confidence in the Eco-Design process.

We would like to thank Ansys-Granta as the Co-ordinator of the PLEIADES consortium and our other project partners Rolls-Royce, the University of Stuttgart and Thinkstep.
