WATER AND ENERGY ADVANCED MANAGEMENT FOR IRRIGATION (WEAM4I)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

Agriculture sector is accountable for 30% of the total water consumption in Europe, but reaches up to 70% of total water consumption in several European southern countries. In recent years, most of the efforts have been focused on water efficiency, without taking care of energy aspects, resulting in some cases on a significant increase in energy consumption, both per irrigated surface and per volu ...

Traditional Food Network to improve the transfer of knowledge for innovation (TRAFOON)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

In the European Union, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) of the food sector are increasingly under pressure due to developing open markets, increasing demand of standardized and price competitive food products by the consumers, rising importance of large retailers and challenges in obeying governmental regulations. This raises the risk of losing many traditional foods as well as traditional proc ...

Adjoint-based optimisation of industrial and unsteady flows (AboutFlow)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

Adjoint-based methods have become the most interesting approach in CFD optimisation due to their low computational cost compared to other approaches. The development of adjoint solvers has seen significant research interest, and a number of EC projects have been funded on adjoint-based optimisation. In particular, partners of this proposal are members of the EC FP7 project FlowHead which develops ...

Factories of the Future Resources, Technology, Infrastructure and Services for Simulation and Modelling (FORTISSIMO)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The importance of advanced simulation to the competitiveness of both large and small companies is well established. The principal objective of Fortissimo is to enable European manufacturing, particularly small to medium enterprises (SMEs), to benefit from the efficiency and competitive advantage inherent in the use of simulation. However, the simulation of, for example, high-pressure gas cylinders ...

Multibody Advanced Airship for Transport (MAAT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

"The MAAT project aims to investigate aerial transportation possibility by airship based cruiser-feeder system. MAAT is composed by tree modules :- the cruiser, named PTAH, (acronym of Photovoltaic Transport Aerial High altitude system);- the feeder, named ATEN (Aerial Transport Elevator Network feeder), is a VTOL system (Vertical Take Off and Landing) which ensure the connection ...

Supporting SME driven olive industry to comply with EU directives (En-X-Olive)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

Technical scenario: Olive production is a significant economic sector in southern Member States, especially in Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal. However, the extraction process involved in olive oil production generates non−biodegradable phytotoxic waste, and is therefore a significant source of pollution. Despite the introduction in the 90s of improved separation systems such as 2-phase centrifu ...
