Monitoring systems to Assess Geotechnical Infrastructure subjected to Climatic hazards (MAGIC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The aim of the project is to develop novel systems to monitor earth structures exposed to climate hazard. Following completion of this research and concept demonstration project and subject to additional industry or commercial funding for the development of the technology, this effort is expected to eventually result in new commercial instruments and data management systems which it is in turn ex ...

Intelligent Design Methodologies for Low Pollutant Combustors for Aero-Engines (IMPACT-AE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2016,

The environmental benefits of low emissions lean burn technology in reducing NOx emissions up to 80% will only be effective when these are deployed to a large range of new aero-engine applications. While integrating and developing low emission combustion design rules, IMPACT-AE will deliver novel combustor design methodologies for advanced engine architectures and thermodynamic cycles. It will sup ...

Ensuring STABiLIty in organic Solar cells (ESTABLIS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

The Earth receives the energy in 1 hour required for all human needs in a year. Harvesting solar energy will reduce harmful CO2 emissions and resolve the forthcoming energy deficit that other sources alone cannot make up. The market for stable, cheap, roll-to-roll mass-produced organic solar cells (OSCs) is estimated at 1 billion Euros by 2016. The ITN ESTABLIS will produce a team of 11 ESRs and 4 ...

Failure and Fluid Flow in Porous Quasibrittle Materials (failflow)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

This project focuses on fluid flow in porous materials with evolving microstructure in the context of civil engineering applications and geomechanics. When the distribution of cracks and the distribution of pore size evolve in concrete and rocks, the influence on the permeability in the case of a single or a multiphase fluid flow needs some in depth investigation. A recent review of state of the a ...

Towards EXaflop applicaTions (TEXT)

Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

With top systems reaching the PFlop barrier, the next challenge is to understand how applications have to be implemented and be prepared for the ExaFlop target. Multicore chips are already here but will grow in the next decade to several hundreds of cores. Hundreds of thousands of nodes based on them will constitute the future exascale systems.TEXT is centered on the vision that the key component ...

MULTIFUNCTIONAL LAYERS FOR SAFER AIRCRAFT COMPOSITES STRUCTURES (LAYSA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"The use of composite materials in aeronautics industry has increased constantly over the last 35 years, due mainly to their high specific strength and stiffness combined with the possibility of designing complex geometry components that are more aerodynamically efficient than metals. But due to organic nature of polymeric matrix component, composite materials are electrically and thermally bad co ...
