Training in Multiscale Analysis of multi-Phase Particulate Processes (T-MAPPP) (T-MAPPP)
Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2018,
"Dry, wet and multiphase particulate materials constitute over 75% of raw material feedstock to industry. Despite their significance, many industrial particulate processes display unpredictable behaviour due to both their multiscale nature and the coexistence of different phases: this leads to undesirable losses in resources, energy, money and time. Considerable progress can be achieved using mult ...

Complex wetting phenomena (COWET)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
Static and dynamic wetting of solid surfaces by liquids is a focus of numerous theoretical, computational and experimental investigations. Most of the research and training activities are focused on the wetting of simple solids by one-component liquids. However, a wide variety of industrial processes mostly include wetting/spreading of complex multiphase liquids over heterogeneous, structured or ( ...

Taking imaging into the therapeutic domain: Self-regulation of brain systems for mental disorders (BRAINTRAIN)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,
Our proposal is based on the idea that real-time functional neuroimaging can be used to train patients to regulate their own brain activity via neurofeedback training and thus modulate the brain networks of mental disorder, restore function, improve symptoms and promote resilience. We have brought together the core groups that have been instrumental in the development of methods for real-time func ...

Human Factors of Automated Driving (HFAuto)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,
Road transport is an essential part of society but the burden of traffic crashes, congestion, and pollution is enormous. Highly automated driving (HAD) has the potential to resolve these problems and major car makers foresee that HAD will be technically ready for commercialisation within one decade from now. However, industry is ill-prepared to deal with imminent human-error and legal consequences ...

Innovative high efficiency phase change fluid based heat engine (UP-THERM)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
A simple and economic engine concept is proposed as an alternative to the conventional heat engine.The main innovative character of the project is determined by the conceptual approach toward technological solution of the challenging problems of heat engines with external heat supply. This approach includes the use of working fluids changing phase, with crucial benefits in terms of:• liquid workin ...

Optimisation and upscaling of self-cleaning surfaces for automotive sector by combining tailored nanostructured machined injection tools and functional thermoplastic nanocompounds (NANOCLEAN)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Progress in nanotechnology benefits achieving new functions and features for numerous new products and applications through the knowledge-based tailored properties. However, despite these special features, there are many challenges to transfer real applications into our daily life. NANOCLEAN project seeks to demonstrate the up-scaling of tailor-made nanostructured based self-cleaning feature on p ...
