Highly efficient production of ultra-lightweight clay-aerogel materials and their integrated composites for building insulation (ICECLAY)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
40% of energy consumption and 36% CO2 emissions in Europe are directly related to the buildings due mainly to inefficient insulation materials and systems. Currently required insulation performance may only be achieved either by installing extremely thick ordinary insulation materials and sacrificing living spaces or by using unaffordable the state-of-the-art insulation materials (e.g. silica aero ...

Development of PCM-based innovative insulating solutions for the Light-weight building sector (STOREPET)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
New building strategies addressing climate change effects and reduction of heating/cooling energy are two fundamental issues at EU level. Figures as the 35,000 excess deaths attributed to the last heat wave in the continent in 2003, or 10% of the world’s energy being used just for heating of buildings support European citizen’s concerns and new EU legislation. New national and communitarian string ...

Temperature Sensor Coatings for Smart Machining Tools (Turncoat)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
We are seeking FP7 funding for the design and development of a machining tool with a wear-resistant ceramic thin film temperature sensor, for in-situ, continuous wireless monitoring of the temperature during a machining operation. The main benefits are • machining process optimalisation • Optimal use of the tools within their temperature range resulting in increased lifetime of the tool • Detectio ...

European Patient Organizations in Knowledge Society (EPOKS)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,
"The last two decades have witnessed the increasing role of patient, user and civil society organizations (POs and CSOs) in the production of knowledge on diseases and health problems. Rich and detailed studies have shown that this phenomenon entails new forms of activism. It also questions the modes of governance of knowledge, as well as the role of knowledge in the governance of health and medic ...
