Implementation of a water saving and artificial recharging participated strategy for the quantitative groundwater layer rebalance of the upper Vicenza's plain (AQUOR)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: May 1, 2015,

Background One of the negative impacts of climate change in Mediterranean countries is water shortages. While only a minor reduction in the total amount of water that reaches the ground from the atmosphere has been recorded in the past few decades, significant hydrological changes are occurring. For example, weather events (such as rainstorms) have shorte ...

Electric sail propulsion technology (ESAIL)

Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

"The Electric Solar Wind Sail (E-sail) is a recent invention of ultra-efficient propellantless in-space propulsion technology. It uses the solar wind charged ions as natural source for producing spacecraft thrust. The E-sail is composed of a set of long, thin, conducting and positively charged tethers which are centrifugally stretched from the main spacecraft and kept electrically charged by an on ...
