ILA Berlin Air Show 2012

Flying has become an essential business element over the last
decades. Aviation does not only bring together people but enables
global trade and economic growth. In Europe alone, civil
aviation accounts for approximately 600 million passengers and a
turnover of 600 billion euros per year. The market steadily keeps
on growing and constantly asks for new developments. Thus, the
Fraunhofer Gesellschaft and its research institutes’ contribution is
also growing.

One of the central questions in this context is the
question of “ecolonomy”: How can air traffic become more and
more ecological but at the same time remain economic?
A total of ten Fraunhofer establishments present their innovations
at a theme pavilion (hall 3, booth 3221). Current material developments
of fiber composites (Fraunhofer IFAM, Fraunhofer LBF)
and functional surfaces (Fraunhofer IFAM) are to pave new paths
for making flying more economic. Applying Life Cycle Assessment
methods on processes, procedures, and systems relevant
for aviation (Fraunhofer IBP, Fraunhofer IGD) as well as new procedures
for recycling aircraft components (Fraunhofer IBP) focus
on the ecology issue. At the same time neither safety nor comfort
aspects are neglected: An automatic safety system for monitoring
the runway (Fraunhofer FHR), data transfer by light (Fraunhofer
HHI), or a software concept for sensor-based position tracking in
space (Fraunhofer FOKUS) represent this category.

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
