Combustion for Low Emission Applications of Natural Gas (CLEAN-Gas)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

Natural Gas (NG) will be one of the key parameters of the EU energy policy for the next decades. EU gas imports are expected to reach over 80% of total consumption by 2030. Thus, the EU is investing heavily in natural gas equipment. Natural gas combustion has two side effects: the production of greenhouse gases and the emission of pollutants. Conventional techniques used to reduce these emissions ...

Research Network on Flexible Risk Assessment and Decision Science (REFERENCE)

Start date: Sep 3, 2012, End date: Sep 2, 2016,

"The overall aim of this proposed exchange programme is to bring together an international team of researchers, with a wide variety of skills in order to develop a formal safety assessment framework with appropriate support models for application to marine, oil and gas, supply chain management nuclear and transport areas. Life cycle safety of large complex engineering systems will be investigated ...

Discrete bIOimaging perCeption for Longitudinal Organ modElling and computEr-aided diagnosiS (DIOCLES)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

"Recent hardware developments from the medical device manufacturers have made possible non-invasive/in-vivo acquisition of anatomical and physiological measurements. One can cite numerous emerging modalities (e.g. PET, fMRI, DTI). The nature (3D/multi-phase/vectorial) and the volume of this data make impossible in practice their interpretation from humans. On the other hand, these modalities can b ...

Cognitive, Decentralized Coordination of Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Systems via Reconfigurable Task Planning (RECONFIG)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2016,

Description Heterogeneous multi-robot systems hold promise for achieving (a) robustness by leveraging the complementary capabilities of different agents and (b) efficiency by allowing sub-tasks to be completed by the most suitable agent. RECONFIG proposes a reconfigurable and adaptive decentralized coordination framework for a team of multi- ...

Training and collaboration on material developments and process improvements in oil and sugar production (OIL&SUGAR)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

The problems encountered in the industrial processing of oil and sugar are connected with corrosion, biochemical and/or biological reactions, friction, wear, and combined corrosion-wear of materials used in mechanical parts. The main concerns are on one hand a material degradation that generates risks of contamination during food production, and on the other hand the actual machinery that needs to ...

Probabilistic Inverse Models for Assessing the Predictive Accuracy of Inelastic Seismic Numerical Analyses (NOUS)

Start date: Nov 6, 2012, End date: Nov 5, 2015,

This research proposal deals with developing probabilistic inverse models for assessing the predictive accuracy of inelastic seismic numerical analyses. Numerical models for predicting the inelastic response of structures in seismic loading are biased by so-called epistemic uncertainties that arise from our lack of knowledge: modelling errors, poor comprehension of material constitutive behaviours ...

Collaborative Research into Exascale Systemware, Tools and Applications (CRESTA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

For the past thirty years, the need for ever greater supercomputer performance has driven the development of many computing technologies which have subsequently been exploited in the mass market. Delivering an exaflop (or 10^18 calculations per second) by the end of this decade is the challenge that the supercomputing community worldwide has set itself. The Collaborative Research into Exascale Sys ...

TEMPLATE-ASSISTED DEPOSITION OF FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS AND DEVICES (TEMADEP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

"Template-based deposition for the synthesis of nanowires and nanotubes is extensively reported for metals, alloys, and semiconductors. Properties and possible applications of such nanostructured materials were investigated to some extent; inclusive by parties cooperating in this project, but there is still a large need for an ample scientific study in order to support a future implementation in t ...

Enabling Grids for E-sciencE III (EGEE-III)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2010,

A globally distributed computing Grid now plays an essential role for large-scale, data intensive science in many fields of research. The concept has been proven viable through the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE project (EGEE and EGEE-II, 2004-2008) and its related projects. EGEE-II is consolidating the operations and middleware of this Grid for use by a wide range of scientific communities, such as ...
