Results on the main research projects conducted in 1980 are described in the areas of transport and communication systems, airplanes, space flight techniques, exploration techniques, and energy and turbomachinery techniques. The improvement of reliability and security in transportation is a common feature of all projects. Aviation research is focussed on projects such as AIRBUS, fighter aircraft, and helicopters. Spacelab and the development of suitable payloads are the central issues of the space research effort with emphasis on material and processing techniques as well as biophysics and biomedicine. Data acquisition, using sensors and processing of satellite and Spacelab data is actively pursued. Recent developments in the domain of turbomachinery, nonnuclear energy research, energy conservation, and high energy laser techniques are also discussed.
