    Efficient and coordinated transport infrastructure
    Grant scheme: Horizon 2020
    The ECOROADS project aimed to develop a common, enhanced approach to safety issues on road infrastructure and in road tunnels using the concepts and criteria of Directive 2008/96/EC on road infrastructure safety management and the results of two related studies by the European Commission (EC) on Directive 2008/96/EC on road safety management and Directive 2004/54/EC on tunnels.

     

    Implementation of new diagnostic methods for the needs of optimizing the service life of pavements
    Grant scheme: VEGA
    Solving the issue of optimizing the service life of pavements in an international context. Ensuring theoretical and practical consistency between the design and control of qualitative parameters of earth structures and their components. Defining boundary conditions when measuring and determining a unified system approach in the context of their quantification. Objectifying correlation dependencies enabling correct interchangeability of used control procedures and characteristics.

     

    Modernization of ISEH by subsystem: Optimization program
    Grant scheme: SSC Bratislava, research tasks
    Creation of an optimization decision program model. Defining input data requirements for the ISEH economic evaluation system. Creation of decision-making procedures for calculating the optimal repair year and for determining the optimal road repair technology and determining the optimal financial requirements for road repairs and maintenance. Creation of homogeneous sections according to the optimal technology and optimal road repair year.

     

    Improving coordination and planning of freight transport in a defined region
    Grant scheme: Interreg Central Europe , call 2, Improving coordination and planning of freight transport on Trans Tritia Project territory (TRANS TRITIA CE960)
    The aim of the project is to define and model the throughput of border crossings in a defined regional territory. Proposals for increasing capacity and economic relations.
