GSS EU Science Funding Gateway

There proposals should address the following:

• Assess the behaviour of a large sample of these L vehicles in real driving conditions for both noise and emissions in comparison with certification tests.
• In particular, assess the real world driving behaviour that can produce particularly high annoyance and effect on health (noise emissions).
• Propose specific technical improvements in the standard test procedure (performed in homologated test tracks) so that the tests could better approach real world driving conditions and improve measurement technology for detecting nanoparticles.
• Assess how significant the impact of these emissions is on urban environments and health and examine whether the current regulatory limits are sufficient.
• Assess how widespread tampering is, its impact on global urban noise and emissions lev, its impact on global urban noise and emissions levels, and propose solutions to prevent it.
• Develop reliable technological solutions and effective experimental techniques for better enforcement of the regulatory measures for detecting noise under real driving conditions.

Projects should make use of available results and technologies from projects funded in projects on remote monitoring issuing from topics LC-MG-1-1-2018 and LC-MG-1-9-2019, from projects on tampering LC-MG-1-4-2018, and from projects on nanoparticles measurement issuing from topic GV-02-2016.
