ZaCjel Project

Activities

The implementation of the ZaCjel project was organized through the activities of five work packages in the period from April 2020 to April 2023.

Scientific research is conducted through two work packages:
 
1. Development of a New Methodology for the Protection of the Integrity of Dynamically Loaded Structures. The work package includes the following activities:
 
  • Diagnosis of damage in laboratory conditions
  • Experimental study of fatigue properties of materials
  • Numerical modeling of experimental samples and real constructions
  • Upgrading the dynamic system control system with structural elements in order to preserve the permitted operating modes.
2. The Application and Verification of the New Methodology on the Real Construction Component includes the following activities:
  • Processing of results of deformation and vibration measurements of Končar wind turbines in operation
  • Inverse modeling in order to determine the load of the axle arm of the Končar wind turbine from the measurement results
  • Determining the position of sensors and vibration exciters on the shaft sleeve
  • Damage analysis on the shaft arm
  • Determination of permissible operating modes for shaft sleeve
  • Wind turbine control in order to preserve the permissible axle load modes.
In order to make the most of the results of scientific research and to implement the project properly, there are the following work packages:
 
3. Transfer of Knowledge and Technology:
  • Preparation of a study to verify and protect IPR on project results
  • IPR protection on project results
  • Commercialization of project results.
4. Promotion and Visibility:
  • Creating and maintaining a project website and project presentation
  • Organizing promotional workshops for the economy and making promotional materials
  • Publication of research results.
5. Project Management:
  • Administrative project management
  • Technical project management
  • Activities to promote horizontal principles
  • Organization of consortium meetings.
