Fields of Activity CONCEPTUAL KLT has three open working lines to place R&D projects and contracts under way. These lines are: - Introduction of crowdsourcing, software collaborations platforms and knowledge social networks, like web 2.0, for our institutional and private clients. - Development of intelligent transport systems (ITS) and “Internet of Things”. - Innovation in the maritime and port management, boosting comodality in the rail and port node and developing “cloud computing” applications.


Our projects are based on the large professional experience of our company personnel, that includes important responsibility positions in different Spanish ports (Santander, Gijón). Regarding to projects, EcomodalUmlandPort project main objective is to generate tools and logistics solutions for a better knowledge and improvement of hinterland-port communications, according to umland characteristics and limitations, and taking account of efficiency, sustainability and co-modality criteria. Main tasks in this project include a complete data base of technical data (position, size, infrastructure connections, services) about all ports and logistics centers and operators in Spain, in order to develop a simulation tool for the optimal connection between logistics centers and ports, by road and by train.


SILE (Efficient Logistic System In and Out of Ports) project is centered in the development of an efficient management system for freight transportation by road between port installations and near located companies. It is based, among others, in RFID technologies. ComodalWeb2.0 project has as main objective to improve sea logistics co-modality (motorways of the sea) applying a multi-agent, web 2.0 arquitecture, in order to increase collaboration between different port communities, and between port communities and final users, and trying to reduce administrative tasks. Finally, we are starting now a new project in close collaboration with RENFE, in order to develop an electronic platform for web-based information interchange between RENFE and its customers. Final project objective is to develop a logistics management system for railway freight end-to-end transportation. Additionally, we are collaborating in two european projects: “Marnis” project, which is a project under the European Commission VI Framework Programme (2004-2008), acting CONCEPTUAL as a subcontractor of one the partners, the Company PORTEL, which provides telematics services to the Spanish ports. “Skema” project, (Sustainable Knowledge Platform for the European Maritime and Logistics Industry, 2008-2009), which is a project under the VII Framework Programme funded by the DGTREN, acting CONCEPTUAL as a subcontractor of one the partners, the Company PORTEL.

TEKNIKER has a huge experience working with FP7th Projects and has just finished the European Project CLEANENGINE, where new coatings, alternative lubricants and alternative fuels, have been developed and specify, to reduce the friction and improve the efficiency of the engine. The use of biofuels allowed to reduce the emissions but could present problems of dilution in the lubricants that should be avoided by the use of the right lubricants. Another important factor is the use of aftertreatment systems to reduce the emissions of the engines, since the sulphur content of the fuel, can be negative for the efficiency of the aftertreatment systems. For that, the use of lubricants and fuels with low SAP (sulphur, ash, phosphorous) is recommended.

Abstract

We are interesting in cooperation on following scientific questions: 1) Development of Acoustic Noise Compensation System for vehicles. Microphones are established near an engine, wheels and other sources of noise. The DSP processor models transfer function of space from a source of noise to a driver. Processed and inverted acoustic signal is played inside car salon. It will allow to lower noise level without raising of a thickness and quantity of sound insulator layers. 2) Development and perfection of algorithms for refinement of a driver speech from a noise for accurate recognition of phrases (work in the noisy environment). 3) Development and perfection of algorithms for driver speech recognition with the aim of voice-activated control by car systems. 4) Development of compression algorithms for systems of video registration of surrounding conditions. The system is intended for constant videorecording of road conditions, actions of the driver and other drivers, and can be used with the aim of innocence proof at road accident.

Topic(s) SST.2011.1.1-2. Retrofitting of existing ships with green technologies

Abstract

The possibility to substitute the few big thermal engines actually installed in an engine room of a ship with many smaller engines is the the main focus of the project. The prosed technology for these engines come from mass-produced engines for the automotive sector. This category represents the state of the art in engine technology and is now reported with high efficiency, very low emission and low cost per installed kW. Furthermore, the use of variable speed gensets, flexible control system, global optimal operating point of the generation system, generation system integrated with the on-board electric power system, electric drive of the propellers and modular design approach also contribute to improve system efficiency and to lower the emissions. The proposed system seems to be suited for repowering existing ships characterized by varible duty cycle, where the time at reduced power is preponderant with respect to the time at full power.

Project Proposal Title Efficient Multimodal Transport Chain for Belarusian Potash Fertilizers Delivery to Baltic Ports


MULTITRANSCHAIN

Topic(s) SST.2011.2.1-1. Efficient interfaces between transport modes

Abstract

Belarus is the world third possessor and producer of potash fertilizers. The overwhelming quantity of this Belarusian resource is transported to ports in Klaipeda (Lithuania) and Ventspils (Latvia). The high-level discussions of the development of the corresponding delivery structure (port terminals and rail roads) are in progress. So this approach makes it possible to say about “greening” of transport supplies. The idea of the project is to develop a software system based on modern


computer science technologies, which, taking into account world market requirements, participants’ economic preferences, technical constraints and ecological standards, will suggest - variants of an efficient multimodal transportation structure, including loading and unloading terminals, port facilities and rail routes, and - variants of the product quantities to be delivered to the ports and the corresponding timetables. These variants will be used to make scientifically grounded decisions about the structure of the relevant transportation system and its functioning. Project objectives are: • Development of virtual variants for an efficient multimodal transportation system for potash fertilizers delivery from Belarus to ports in Lithuania and Latvia, and a user friendly software for on-line modifications of these variants. • Development of a software system to determine optimal distribution of a certain (parameterized) quantity of Belarusian potash fertilizers between different ports in Lithuania and Latvia, and the corresponding delivery timetables, subject to national and world market requirements, technical constraints and ecological standards

Project Proposal Title Reliable safety transport motion


RELIABLE MOTION

Topic(s) SST.2011.3.4-1. Design, implement and test innovative strategies for sustainable urban transport

Abstract

EU road motion has very high intensity. It is easy predict the situation, when the motion intensity will increase to such level, that any barrier on the way (little damage, repair work and others) may be a reason of big traffic jams. All this leads to time losses and funds, in most degree lower the effectiveness of transport work and makes worse the ecological


situation. Recent fact is especially important for big towns, since in the places of traffic jams appearing the concentration of exhaust gases increases in few times more. One of the most frequently occurring reasons of big traffic jams or damage situations is a defective car. The main objective of the project is to research and develop road safety transportation system. It means the elaboration of smart and adaptable transport communication service platform for further improving of the integrated approaches to safety, considering together the infrastructure, vehicles, drivers and other transport users. This is an active safety transport system, connecting transport means in the common information space with possibility of interchange of information about their technical state (if it is dangerous), and makes it possible to correct motion of vehicles (or stop at all) in compliance with taken information. The information about difficult conditions can be transmitted from vehicles to service centers for coordination of transport motion and re-orientation of transport flows. This active safety transport motion system represents transport communication one, including vehicles, equipped by: - several radio-channels for connection “car-by-car”(if the technical state of a vehicle is abnormal), with service center (in dangerous conditions appearing and for control of a car technical state); - GPS for location of a vehicle and correction of vehicle motion parameters; - device for real-time analyses of the diagnostic system data (tester). This system, basing in large extent on sufficiently well-developed technologies (GPS, diagnostic system), in addition with elaboration of radio-channel “car-to-car” and some technologies solutions may be reliable and advanced tool for increasing of motion safety and traffic situation detection.

Project Proposal Title Development of methodological and instrumental means for vibration monitoring of resource expenditure by ship knots in service


VIBRATION


Abstract

Working out of effective methodical and instrumental means for technical conditions estimation and forecasting of a residual resource of responsible ship knots is a necessary condition of the non-productive costs reduction for their servicing and repair. These approaches create conditions for transition from scheduled preventive system of maintenance service to their on-line work. Questions of vibration diagnostics and residual resource forecasting of various mechanisms (pumps, fans, compressors, etc.) including stationary geared systems are enough full developed and


presented in many scientific and technical publications. At the same time questions of methodical and instrumental servicing of the vibration diagnostics under operating conditions are not developed enough fully yet. It is connected with difficulties of identification of defects arising in knots and having parameters of vibrating signal which constantly vary in accordance with changes of speed and loading operating modes of a ship. It is offered to create the methodical and onboard instrumental means allowing by means of continuous vibration monitoring of systems (gear boxes, reducers, etc.) and changing of their vibrating parameters in service, to estimate their technical state and to predict residual resource of their knot elements.

Project Proposal Title Development and production of ships driving gears of improved technical characteristics


GEAR


Abstract

Reducer, used in ships, should possess the following properties: small overall dimensions (improved composition) and mass (to minimize unsprung masses), high coefficient of performance (to provide high efficiency of a driving gear) and reliability. That is why we propose development and production of the driving gears, created on the base of planetary pin reducers (which are also known as cycloid reducers). Due to high-capacity contact in coupling, reducers of this type possess high load-carrying capability and kinematic accuracy. Low sliding friction provide high coefficient of performance. Taking into account wide range of reduction ratios, small overall dimensions and mass, high reliability of such


constructions, we can conclude that planetary pin reducers may be effectively used in construction of ship driving gears. Unitary Enterprise “Instrument making plant “Optron” has a large experience in methodological maintenance, development and production of planetary pin reducers for different application fields.

Project Proposal Title Development of normative ensuring of inclusion of Republic of Belarus in common EU Transport Space


Ensuring of Common Normative Transport Space (ECONOT)

Topic(s) SST.20011.2.1-1. Efficient interface between transport modes

Abstract

Normative ensuring of a common economic (and firstly, transport) space forming is of special interest for Republic of Belarus, since this process is called to guarantee social-economic necessities of a society, as well as to stimulate in much degree integration processes in different spheres. In any event essential social phenomena are connected with public conveyances, which are important elements of ensuring of sustainable development. People migration, urbanization and problems of big towns, life level equalization - all this factors have their own transport constituent. EU transport legislation is essential different by structure and aplication principles from normative base, acting in Republic of Belarus and other post-USSR countries. Existing deficiencies of legal regulation of activities for rendering of service by public conveyances, including international motor transportation of passengers, imbalance of applied legal norms, technologies and standards are barriers for tourism and market development. Forming of harmonized legal space promotes development of international economic relations, that for one's turn will approach Belarus to EU standards. Joining of our country to general regulations, applied in international traffic of passengers, takes a special place in this process. Addition of Republic of Belarus to the system of international compacts and conventions, related to public conveyances, as well as garmonization with EU approaches of standards and technologies in the sphere of long-distance traffic of passengers will create real prerequisites for functioning of general market of transport services, including Republic of Belarus.

Main Work Packages


The following aspects must be studied and so recommendations have been developed: - EU legislation, defining obligations of carriers following from conseption of rendering of public services; - procedure of contract conclusion and ensuring of transparency of finansial relations between a State and transport organizations with respect to provision of funds; - systen of transport means classification according to “stars”, developed by IRU; - certification of service, rendered by transport organizations; - ensuring of common approaches with respect to protection of passenger rights; - creation of uniform and transparent criteria of access for carriers to a market of motor conveyance of passengers.
