Three projects have been labelled on this project

Since the beginning of the year, Trans-I already labelled 26 projects: 21 innovation by industry, representing 51 million of budget (at 60 private), of which 10 have come full circle or virtually sealed off their funding, $ 20 million. Six have also already started (). The other five projects are located in the sector of research and are worn by laboratories for approximately 2 million public investment.

Each project is led by a consortium of companies, laboratories and universities. If the "Trans" of this pole means transport, that it is to the field of rail, automotive and logistics, the "I" corresponds to four issues, four research axes bounding the scope and that summarize any strategy to build the first European pole of global visibility in the field of transport of the future.

"I" for intelligent systems of transport and the flow of information for the traveller.

It is to create new services for travellers including developing opportunities to inform: it could handle its matches, since his train, but also have tourism, even playful, information on the place where it is. Viatic mobility (2.2 million) project focuses on these services from mobility based on NTIC and is based on a multimodal information regional demonstrator.

"I" for Interopérabilitédu railroad.

Europe is becoming a single territory the freight is already liberalized where the rolling must circulate without breaking. This relates to several projects including including the Intercity high speed train (more than 200 kph) positioned on the market of travellers. It is to develop new technologies or equipment necessary for the achievement of this type of train on a classic line modified for high speed. Three projects have been labelled on this project. Procab (protection of the railway cabs) concerns the safety of the occupants, student biomechanical aspects for crash. Ultimat (for innovative use of new materials) is designed to validate the use of these (composites, metal foam, new steel, sandwich of steel and polymers) to achieve a caisse multi-material to reduce the mass of railway vehicles. Finally coupler Audio MPEG Wi - Fi should allow broadcast audio ads scanned on trains travelling in Europe.

To accommodate this Intercity train, should improve conventional lines. NBT is the study and the realization of a concept of new track supporting trains ranging up to 350 km/h. CMA is a design project and realization of composite structures for railway infrastructure itself.

"I" for freight and passenger transport intermodality.

To decongest road risk term saturation, should facilitate other modes, whether the route River or railway, and especially to make increasingly multimodal transport. It is to create tools to facilitate this multimodality. Detrace (European rail traceability demonstrator) objective is to develop a traceability system for cargo draft taking into account the intermodal aspect in a European dimension. IPMN's theme the interconnection of the Nord - Pas-de-Calais 20 multimodal platforms to make a network open to shippers and importers of the hinterland.

"I" for Innovation in economic development.

All projects are derived from this last "i" in this pole which plays the role of catalyst for innovative projects. But it is particularly involved in research on all things security and acoustic of on-board equipment. It's the skills necessary to master the technologies in terms of security, primarily passive, but also reduce the noise generated by the vibro-acoustic behaviour of embedded in the vehicle outside, equipment, become nuisances to the residents.
