The key objective of this topic is to provide innovative design criteria for designing power gearboxes planet bearings in terms of base material, geometry and heat treatment, including residual stress profile. Minimal crack(s) may appear and/or develop beneath the raceway of the roller (cracks so small that are impossible to detect via Health Monitoring techniques in the driveline). Considering the presence of these defects, guidelines and best practices on optimal enhancement of the strength of the component as well as on the maximization of its reliability in service, shall be developed, to be applied in the early stage of the design and allowing for a robust design optimization. The applicant(s) shall build a comprehensive methodology for component sizing and required compressive stress field (produced by the hardening), confirming the results via a crack growth numerical analyses and by base material / rotating component tests with induced defects. Please refer to the full topic descriptions document published in this call.

Horizon 2020 - is a Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development, and is created by the European Union in order to support and encourage research in the European Research Area (ERA). This is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020). By coupling research and innovation, Horizon 2020 is helping to achieve this with its emphasis on excellent science, industrial leadership and tackling societal challenges. The goal is to ensure Europe produces world-class science, removes barriers to innovation and makes it easier for the public and private sectors to work together in delivering innovation. The Horizon 2020 programme running from 2014 to 2020 has a €79 billion budget (a 46% increase over FP7).
It is structured around three core pillars:
Type of projects: mostly grants, no supplies, no works.
