Innovative Concepts for Extracting climate and atmospheric composition records from polar ice cores using new LASER Sensors (ICE&LASERS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2018,

ICE&LASERS propose to make a breakthrough in two challenges of paleoclimate science:(1) Extending the Antarctic ice core records to 1.5 million years ago is critical to understand the unexplained climate shift from 40,000-year periodicities to 100,000-year ones, calling for a different climate sensitivity to orbital forcing. We propose to revolutionize ice core science by building an innovative pr ...

Dynamic and Plasticity of Spatial Perception and Attention Neural Processes (DynPspanp)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 1, 2017,

Spatial attention is vital for interacting with the surrounding environment. Recent studies in cognitive neuroscience suggest that the fronto-parietal regions may exert a top-down attentional influence on early sensory processing areas. However the dynamics and the role of these cortical interactions remain poorly understood. Furthermore, spatial perception was shown to be modulated by subtle know ...

Healthier Life with Eco-innovative Components for Housing Constructions (H-House)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

H-House is aiming at the development of a number of building components for modern society where awareness for environmental aspects and living comfort are not compromised but complementing each other. The concept of H-House aims at components for the building envelope and components for the interior applied to both new buildings and for renovation. The purpose of an adequate building envelope is ...

Regenerating Bone defects using New biomedical Engineering approaches (REBORNE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Bone is among the most frequently transplanted tissue with about 1 million procedures annually in Europe. The worldwide market of bone replacement materials is currently estimated at 5 billion € with a 10% annual growth. Despite their considerable disadvantages, including the risk of disease transfer and immunologic rejection, limited supply of bone, costs and complications, allografts and autogra ...

"Augmented Usage of Track by Optimisation of Maintenance, Allocation and Inspection of railway Networks" (AUTOMAIN)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

"Rail traffic has increased much in the last decade. This development and the need for model shift from road to rail to decrease CO2 emission, creates a challenge for the railway industry to improve capacity in the network while the need of capacity for maintenance also increases.The challenge of the project is to do more effective inspection and maintenance in less time.Therefore the project focu ...
