The transport sector is increasingly faced with several issues related to the rising of traffic demand such as congestion, energy consumption, noise, pollution, safety, etc.. Due to its low external and environmental costs, railway can be considered (together with inland waterways and...

Space weather caused by solar activity can disrupt and damage critical infrastructures in space and on the ground. Space-weather impacts to the power grid, aviation, communication, and navigation systems have already been documented. Since society relies increasingly on the services these...

This report provides a general EU-wide outlook about the future vulnerability of transport to climate change with a focus on the road and rail transport and their infrastructures. It also analyses some specific adaptations measures, illustrating key issues to be considered for policy making. It...

The actions proposed by the Mutually Agreed Norms for Routing Security (MANRS) initiative aim to strengthen the security of the global Internet routing system, thus improving the interoperability, scalability, stability, and security of the Internet. This report provides an overview of the...

Ten years ago, when the Strategic Energy Technology (SET) Plan was launched, the energy transition was in the making but still looked distant. While the challenge of successfully transforming our energy system still lies ahead of us, few would deny that the chances of success seem today much...

This report presents some preliminary calculations for the simulation of rat, monkey and human head behaviour (in particular of the brain) under imposed deceleration conditions by the EUROPLEXUS code. EUROPLEXUS (also abbreviated as EPX) is a computer code jointly developed by the French...

The purpose of this technical paper is to illustrate a computationally cheap approach of conducting the multivariate sensitivity analysis with a very large and complex non-linear model RHOMOLO. We evaluated model responses to the different combinations of the following input data a) elasticity...

The PN-PEMS is considered a "black box" where efficiency tests and linearity have to be checked with thermally stable soot like aerosol. The efficiency is checked with monodisperse aerosol. The most straight forward way is to check the efficiency of the complete PN-PEMS but checking the thermal...
