New approaches in the development of Hypoallergenic implant material in Orthopaedics: steps to personalised medicine (HYPORTH)

Start date: Aug 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2018,

Europe is confronted by a demographic challenge as a decreasing work force has to support an increasing elderly population. The economic risk implied by this burden could be addressed by efforts to achieve an increase in Healthy Life Years. One key element would be to ensure unrestricted mobility for especially the elderly, allowing them to stay at work for longer. Irreversible joint deterioration ...

High-resolution fingerprint sensing with vertical piezoelectric nanowire matrices (PiezoMAT)

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

Description High-resolution fingerprint sensors based on a matrix of interconnected piezoelectric nanowires (NWs). The paradigm of societal uses protected by biometric identification (ID) – from national security and controlled access, to health care, banking and leisure – requires coming up with ...

Fundamental and Applied Electromagnetics of Nano-Carbons (FAEMCAR)

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

"Owing to very small dimensions of nanostructures in one or more directions, spatial confinement of charge carriers is fully achieved, providing thereby a discrete spectrum of their energy states. In addition, intrinsic spatial inhomogeneity of nanostructures dictates nanoscale inhomogeneity of the surrounding electromagnetic fields. Therefore, understanding the properties of nanostructures requir ...

Graphene-Based Revolutions in ICT And Beyond (GRAPHENE)

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

This Flagship aims to take graphene and related layered materials from a state of raw potential to a point where they can revolutionize multiple industries – from flexible, wearable and transparent electronics, to new energy applications and novel functional composites.Our main scientific and technological objectives in the different tiers of the value chain are to develop material technologies fo ...

Ultra-versatile Nanoparticle Integration into Organized Nanoclusters (UNION)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2016,

UNION will develop nanoparticle (NP) assembly techniques, and assembly monitoring technologies to prepare novel hierarchically-ordered nanoparticle clusters (NPCs).By improving control over the synthesis and assembly of NPs we will produce materials with tailored and predictable properties. Furthermore, by incorporating hierarchical control into the assembly (through the type, size and spatial dis ...

The statistical physics of network formation games (StatPhysNetFormGame)

Start date: Nov 8, 2013, End date: Nov 7, 2015,

"Modelling complex networks (e.g. the Internet or social networks) has in the past few years been a central topic in statistical physics. However, the role of game theory for network formation is still not sufficiently appreciated by physicists. Here I propose to develop a model, called the ""local network connection game"", which is inspired by the manner in which decisions are taken by agents in ...
