Content • We want to make you apply for the very next MSCA call • About us • Why H2020? • Why RISE? • Our project proposal • Some advices
Not because we are great, but exactly the opposite... Who we are?
Who we are • The Faculty of Mechanical and Civil Engineering in Kraljevo • The University of Kragujevac
Who we are • Horizon 2020 • RISE-2016: A_MADAM – coordinator • FoF-2014: FoFAM – individual regional expert • FP7 • REGPOT-2007: SeRViCe – coordinator • SST-2007: TransBonus – partner • FP6 • 2002-TRANSPORT-2: RRTC – partner • EU supported RSDP2, CBC, CEEPUS, Erasmus+ ...
Who we are • Total EU funds ≈ 3,5 M€
Who we are • 3D Impulse
How did we did it? Our project proposal
2012-FP7-IAPP • January 2012... • FP7 Industria-Academia-Partnerships and Pathways • „Inter-sectoral and inter-national“ secondments • Research program • Consortium of both academic partners and SMEs • 100% funded by EU • 19 April 2012 at 17.00.00
2012-FP7-IAPP 1) Secondments • We met them and we liked them! • REGPOT-2007-1 „SeRViCe“ • 1 M€ budget • 180,000 € for secondments • 3x6 months with University of Bologna /Italy/ • 1x12 months with KTH University Stockholm /Sweden/ • 38,000 € for personnel costs of 12-man team for three long years
2012-FP7-IAPP 2) Research program with academic and SME partners • We had it! • REGPOT-2007-1 „SeRViCe“ • Railway industry in Serbia broke in period 2008-2012 • Secondments in Bologna brought a new child... • „IMPulse“ • 2011-2013 • Establishment of research center for support to SMEs • 1 M€ • Built on experience of collaboration between University of Bolognaand SME „Studio Pedrini“ from Bologna • Supported by SME „Topomatika“ from Zagreb /Croatia/
2012-FP7-IAPP 2) Research program with academic and SME partners • Additive manufacturing (AM) • „3D printing“ • „No-man“ manufacturing • „No-tools“ manufacturing • „Rapid“ manufacturing
2012-FP7-IAPP 2) Research plan with academic and SME partners • Selective laser sintering (SLS) • Polymers • Metals and alloys
2012-FP7-IAPP 2) Research plan with academic and SME partners • Problem • AM is still seldom used by industrial and mechanical designers • Research not aimed at needs of engineers • Scientific publications • Engineers use „design rules“ • Solution • Research for industrial and mechanical designers • Establish a comprehensive set of of design rules for AM • Static mechanical behaviour • Dynamic mechanical behaviour (fatigue, impact)
2012-FP7-IAPP 3) Consortium • We had a part... • REGPOT-2007-1 „SeRViCe“ • DIEM – University of Bologna /Italy/ • TEMPUS project JEP-40069 „Multidisciplinary Studies of Design in Mechanical Engineering“ (2006-2008) • YSESM 2005, Forli /Italy/ • IMPuls • Topomatika, Zagreb /Croatia/
2012-FP7-IAPP 3) Consortium • We missed an industrial partner... • The largest EU manufacturer of AM machines
2012-FP7-IAPP • Advanced Design Rules for Additive Manufacturing by SLS • ADAM-SLS • We did not expected it to be approved • „SeRViCe“ was not approved first time • We expected to improve it for the last FP7 call • It was not meant to happen... • Ready 17 April 2012 around 4pm • 19 April 2012 at 17.01.45...not submitted-CALL CLOSED
2013-FP7-IAPP • …December 2012 • Last FP7-IAPP call • 16January 2013 at 17.00.00 • ADAM-SLS was ready... • ...except that EOS opted out of the consortium around Christmas
