o …..
But significantly different in terms of
o cost requirements
o production volumes
o life-time
o certification procedures and standards
o ….
Introduction

o Road & sea freight transport is about 82.9 per cent of total performance
o Passenger transport is highly dominated by individual passenger cars
Modal distribution of transport

o advanced lightweight materials and manufacturing
issues play a crucial role in decarbonisation of our
transport system and for global competitiveness
o multi-material design offers the highest potential in
weight savings and the best CO2 balance
o a holistic CO2 life cycle balance is necessary that takes
into account the processing of the raw material, the
manufacturing, use-phase and recycling (LCA)

The European Technology Platform for Advanced Engineering Materials and Technologies
to promote the leading global position and competitiveness of the EU technology in the area of Advanced Engineering Materials
to ensure optimum involvement of Industry and other important Stakeholders in establishing European R&D priorities
to promote the consolidated and unified R&D&I European policy in this area
Innovative use of existing materials based on good understanding of applications, material requirements and materials degradation mechanisms
Modification of existing materials for new applications (new grades of existing materials systems, new manufacturing processes)
Development of entirely new materials or materials groups (nanomaterials, active/intelligent materials, composites, hybrid and multimaterial structures etc.) and qualifying them for the market

The European Technology Platform for Advanced Engineering Materials and Technologies
The original initiators of A4M initiative are six European Technology Platforms with a strong material agenda in their respective strategies. These are: EuMaT, Suschem, Manufuture, FTC (textile), ESTEP, SMR (sustainable resources), integrated by the two main European materials associations: E-MRS and FEMS
integrate the diversity of ideas in Materials developments across ETPs and other main stakeholders to create synergy and an integrated Materials R&D programme for Europe
ensure that the Industrial Value Chain acts as main driver for a credible integration of resources and players for speeding up exploitation and valorisation of materials research
