COMPOSITE PATCH REPAIR FOR MARINE AND CIVIL ENGINEERING INFRASTRUCTURE APPLICATIONS (CO-PATCH)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"The basic concept of the present work is the definition of an effective repair method for large steel structures with defects. Two basic steel structural types will be dealt with in this work, namely marine structures and steel civil engineering structures. The objective of this project is to demonstrate that composite patch repairs can be environmentally stable and therefore, that they can be us ...

Carbon Dioxide Capture and Hydrogen Production with Membranes (CACHET II)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

Hydrogen membrane reactors are an attractive technology for pre-combustion carbon dioxide capture in both coal and gas fired power stations because they combine the efficient conversion of syngas into hydrogen fuel with capture of the remaining carbon dioxide in one reactor. The carbon dioxide is produced at high pressure, reducing the compression energy for transport and storage. CACHET II projec ...

GOAL Based Damage Stability (GOALDS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

"The new probabilistic damage stability regulations for dry cargo and passenger ships (SOLAS 2009), which entered into force on January 1, 2009, represent a major step forward in achieving an improved safety standard through the rationalization and harmonization of damage stability requirements. There are, however, serious concerns regarding the adopted formulation for the calculation of the survi ...

European Cultural Heritage Identity Card (EU CHIC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"The aim of the project is to set-up a system of the »Cultural Heritage Identity Card« (CHIC), which will introduce a systematic collection and storage of data on the immovable heritage objects across European and neighboring countries. The main objective is to develop and test the guidelines needed for the efficient compilation of the data pertinent to each monument under observation. The system ...

Greening of surface transport through an innovative and competitive CARGO-VESSEL Concept connecting marine and fluvial intermodal ports (EU-CARGOXPRESS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

"EU CargoXpress is going to develop a groundbreaking innovative cargo vessel to meet the expectations of green transport and contributing to decongesting of Europe’s roads. It gives particular attention to the role of SMEs not only in the composition of the consortium (2 out of 6 industry partners are SMEs plus 6 research institutions and a public body) but also when delivering the design of the c ...

Integrated Flooding Control and Standard for Stability and Crises Management (FLOODSTAND)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,

"The size of new passenger ships is continuously increasing. Bigger size offers bigger opportunities and economics of scale, but when a bigger ship accommodates more passengers there may be a higher risk, if evacuation is needed. Thus, new approaches have to be used and further developed in order to have the flooding under control if the watertight integrity of the ship is lost. In the worst case ...

Sign Language Recognition, Generation and Modelling \n with application in Deaf Communication (Dicta-Sign)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

Dicta-Sign addresses the need for communication between deaf individuals and communication via natural language by deaf users with various HCI environments. It will research and develop recognition and synthesis engines for sign languages (SLs) at a level of detail necessary for recognising and generating authentic signing. Research outcomes will be integrated in three laboratory prototypes (a Sea ...

Fabrication of capacitive biosensors using the Laser Induced Forward Transfer process (BioLIFT)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2011,

Biosensor research has blossomed into a mature and highly active field over the past 20 years, both in the laboratory and in the commercial sector. This area attracts enormous attention due to the promise it holds for vital aspects of the human life. The proposed work aims to fabricate a capacitive biosensor, which will be able to perform label-free and fast biodetection based on very small biolog ...
